1. Recent population estimates and trends in numbers of albatrosses and giant petrels breeding at the sub-Antarctic Prince Edward Islands

   Abstract:  The second mid-summer survey of surface-nesting seabirds at the Prince Edward Island group (Marion and Prince Edward islands) was conducted during December 2008, seven years after the initial mid-summer survey. Wandering albatrosses Diomedea exulans may have decreased slightly at Prince

2. Estimates of numbers of kelp gulls and Kerguelen and Antarctic terns breeding at the Prince Edward Islands, 1996/97–2008/09

   Abstract:  Breeding numbers of Laridae and other surface-nesting seabirds have been monitored at subantarctic Marion Island since 1996/97 and counts of breeding birds were made at nearby Prince Edward Island in December 2001 and December 2008. Four species are regular breeders at the islands:

3. Quantitative assessment of benthic fauna and assemblages in the Heard Island and McDonald Islands region

   Abstract:  A benthic sampling program in the Heard Island and McDonald Islands (HIMI, CCAMLR Statistical Division 58.5.2) region was undertaken by the Australian Antarctic Division (AAD) from 2003 to 2008. Quantitative samples collected during three cruises by the fishing vessel Southern Champion

4. Elaborating a representative system of marine protected areas in eastern Antarctica, south of 60°S

   Abstract:  The plan of implementation for Agenda 21 of the United Nations World Summit on Sustainable Development (2002) requires an estate of marine protected areas for the purposes of long‐term conservation of marine biodiversity by 2012. A representative system of marine protected areas (RSMPA)

7. Preliminary assessment of the potential for the proposed bottom fishing activities to have significant adverse impact on vulnerable marine ecosystems

   Abstract:  The Secretariat has received a notification from the UK for exploratory fisheries for Dissostichus spp. in Subareas 88.1 and 88.2 in 2010/11. This notification included a preliminary assessment of the potential for the proposed bottom fishing activities to have significant adverse impact

8. Demonstrating proof of concept of the application of systematic conservation planning at the circumpolar scale

   Abstract:  Systematic conservation planning is a recognised tool for advancing ongoing efforts to establish meaningful protection for the unique biodiversity of the Southern Ocean. With conservation planning already underway in a number of priority areas within the Southern Ocean, this report looks

9. Responding to climate change: Adélie penguins confront astronomical and ocean boundaries

   Abstract:  Long-distance migration enables many organisms to take advantage of lucrative breeding and feeding opportunities during summer at high latitudes and then to move to lower, more temperate latitudes for the remainder of the year. The latitudinal range of the Adélie penguin spans ~22o.

10. Spatial and seasonal distribution of adult Oithona similis in the Southern Ocean: predictions using boosted regression trees

    Abstract:  We applied a multivariate statistical modelling technique called boosted regression trees to derive relationships between environmental conditions and the distribution of the adult stage of the cyclopoid copepod Oithona similis in the Southern Ocean. Nearly 20 000 samples from the
