An acoustic survey of Antarctic krill on the South Georgia shelf, CCAMLR Subarea 48.3, in January 1992
the opportunity was taken in 1992 to produce a krill biomass estimate as a by-product of a fish stock ... operating at 38 kHz and 120 kHz. The results have been analysed for all straight sections of track when the ... ship's speed exceeded 7 knots and when the ship was over the shelf around the main island of South ... Georgia.
