2. PHYSICAL CONTROLS ON CORAL COMMUNITIES ON THE GEORGE V LAND SLOPE: SOME WORKING HYPOTHESES

   Abstract:  Dense coral-sponge communities on the upper continental slope off George V Land have been identified as a Vulnerable Marine Ecosystem in the Antarctic. The challenge is now to understand their likely distribution. The CEAMARC survey of 2007/2008 found these communities at sites on the

3. ANTARCTIC-WIDE GEOMORPHOLOGY AS AN AID TO HABITAT MAPPING AND LOCATING VULNERABLE MARINE ECOSYSTEMS

   Abstract:  Publicly available bathymetry and geophysical data can be used to map geomorphic features of the Antarctic continental margin and adjoining ocean basins at scales of 1:1-5 million. These data can also be used to map likely locations for some Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems. Seamounts over a

4. A DATABASE OF LIFE-HISTORY ATTRIBUTES FOR HABITAT-FORMING BENTHIC TAXA

   Abstract:  A global database of life-history characteristics, including growth rate, age, maximum size and reproductive parameters, was established for benthic, habitat-forming taxa and associated physical and chemical variables, including depth, temperature, oxygen concentration, salinity and

5. PREDICTING THE VULNERABILITY OF BRYOZOANS AND SPONGES TO DISTURBANCE USING LIFE-HISTORY CHARACTERISTICS

   Abstract:  Following on from earlier analyses presented to WG-EMM, meta-analyses of life-history characteristics and their relationships with physical and chemical variables were undertaken for habitat-forming invertebrates other than cnidarians. Particular focus was placed on bryozoans and sponges

7. USING GENERALIZED DISSIMILARITY MODELLING TO ANALYSE AND PREDICT PATTERNS OF BETA DIVERSITY IN REGIONAL BIODIVERSITY ASSESSMENT

   Abstract:  Generalized dissimilarity modelling (GDM) is a statistical technique for analysing and predicting spatial patterns of turnover in community composition (beta diversity) across large regions. The approach is an extension of matrix regression, designed specifically to accommodate two types

8. RESPONSE OF ANTARCTIC BENTHIC COMMUNITIES TO DISTURBANCE: WRST RESULTS FROM THE ARTIWCIAL BENTHIC DISTURBANCE EXPERIMENT ON THE EASTERN WEDDELL SEA SHELF, ANTARCTICA

   Abstract:  The long-term benthic disturbance experiment (BENDEX) was started on the eastern Weddell Sea shelf off Austasen (Antarctica) during ‘Polarstern’ cruise ANT XXI/2 in December 2003 to simulate the impact of grounding icebergs on the seabed and follow the steps and timescales of recovery of
