A study of UK and Russian surveys using acoustics to augment trawling methods in shelf waters off South Georgia (Subarea 48.3)
. Both used acoustic and trawl methods, and this paper uses both datasets to explore the similarities and ... differences between the surveys and discuss how much of the variation between the vessels was due to ... differences in the gear used and how much was due to natural spatial/temporal variability of the stock. The ... acoustic surveys indicated that icefish were not only located near to the seabed, but that a significant ...

Proposal for an experimental crab fishery in Subarea 48.3
Abstract: An experimental management strategy is proposed for the Paralomis spinosissima fishery ... around South Georgia. The strategy is designed to answer specific, a priori questions about the ... years/fishing seasons. Phase 1 occurs at the start of the first fishing season and is a "survey ... fishing operations continue until the TAC for the first fishing season is attained. Phase 2 starts at the ...

Krill aggregation characteristics: spatial distribution patterns from hydroacoustic observations. Polar Biology (in press)
Abstract: The distributional features and physical characteristics of some 1500 krill (Euphausia ... superba Dana) aggregations detected and sized acoustically in the south-west Indian Ocean are described ... . The aggregations were on average considerably smaller than elsewhere in the Antarctic. Aggregation ... biomass was log-normally distributed with a mean of 0.18 t. Only 3% of the aggregations were heavier than ...

Stock structure of Antarctic toothfish in Statistical Area 88 and implications for assessment and management
Abstract: We review the stock structure of Antarctic toothfish in Statistical Area 88 with the ... aim of characterising the likely stock boundaries relative to stock assessments. We include ... , growth dynamics, and egg and larval dispersal simulations. Taken together, the information suggests two ... Sea Region stock. The Amundsen Sea stock likely includes juveniles and adults along the continental ...

Uncertainty in standard sphere calibrations
Abstract: In fisheries acoustics, the standard sphere method of echosounder calibration is most ... commonly used (Johannesson and Mitson, 1983; Simmonds et al., 1984). To investigate the uncertainty in the ... variations in the system gains of 0.3, 0.2 and 1.5 dB, respectively. Additionally, system gain values ... calibrated with the 30.5 mm Cu sphere were consistently lower than those with the 33.2 mm WC sphere. Prompted ...

Results of reading tests of TOP otolith sections and time schedule of reading for Dissostichus otoliths caught in regions of data-poor fisheries
Abstract: The correct age-length keys are essential for the stock assessment of Dissostichus spp ... . by CASAL model. However, the age estimations using the otoliths have been scarcely progressed in ... regions of data-poor fisheries. Therefore the analysis is an urgent task. We have made five reading tests ... using images of thin-sectioned TOP otoliths in December 2012 and May 2013. The coefficient of variation ...
