1. Review of small-scale research unit boundaries used for the assessment and management of D. mawsoni in Subarea 88.1

   Abstract:  This paper provides a review of the boundaries of the small scale research units (SSRUs) used to manage the exploratory fishery for D.mawsoni in Subarea 88.1. In determining appropriate SSRU boundaries we considered the physical and geographical features of the Subarea including the

2. An examination of latitudinal variation in the growth rates of Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) in the Ross Sea

   Abstract:  Following a finding that a small sample of aged Dissostichus mawsoni from McMurdo Sound (76° S) fell consistently below the von Bertalanffy curves calculated predominantly from data collected between 67 and 74° S, an investigation to test for latitudinal differences in growth rates was

4. Preliminary assessment of mackerel icefish, Champsocephalus gunnari, on the Heard Island Plateau (Division 58.5.2) based on a survey in April–May 2003

   Abstract:  A preliminary assessment of yield of Champsocephalus gunnari for Heard Island Plateau (Division 58.5.2) was undertaken using the standard CCAMLR methods, based on the result of a randomly stratified trawl survey completed between 16 April and 10 May 2003. The 2003 estimate of abundance

6. Modelling catch and effort data using generalised linear models with random cruise and stratum-by-year effects: trawl fishery for Dissostichus eleginoides in CAMLR Area 58.5.2

   Abstract:  A set of procedures for modelling catch and effort data using generalized linear mixed models (GLMMs) including data analytic methods for examining the appropriateness of model structure and parameter values was presented in WG-FSA-SAM 03-12 using Dissostichus eleginoides in Subarea 48.3

7. Performance assessment of underwater setting chutes, side setting and blue-dyed bait to minimize seabird mortality in hawaii longline tuna and swordfish fisheries – Final Report August 2003

   Abstract:  Mortality in longline fisheries is a critical global threat to some seabird species. Identifying andmainstreaming seabird avoidance methods that not only have the capacity to minimize bird interactions, but are also practical and convenient, providing crew with incentives to employ them
