CCAMLR TAGGING PROGRAM
Abstract: In 2008 WG-FSA recommended that the Secretariat undertake to identify the tagging event ... details for all tags recovered (WG-FSA 2008 paragraph 3.55). The Secretariat has been able to verify the ... proportion of the tags that can now be linked to tagging events in exploratory fisheries (Table 1). The ... recapture linkage rate for rajids has been lower than for toothfish in Subareas 88.1 and 88.2. The linking ...

Echo integration in low signal to noise regimes: methods of noise estimation and removal
Abstract: The results of acoustic surveys, especially in low signal-to-noise regimes, are ... sensitive to the method used to exclude the contribution of background noise from the acoustic data. The use ... of thresholds to reject weak signals during data collection is inappropriate because the noise ... contribution to the above-threshold-signal cannot later be removed in post processing. The only solution is to ...

Towards a new method for age determination in Antarctic krill, and evidence that krill shrink under natural conditions
individuals may be shrinking in the field during winter. If krill shrink during the winter, conclusions ... reached by length-frequency analysis may be unreliable. In this study, the correlation between the body ... -length and the crystalline cone number of the compound eye was examined. Samples collected in the late ... laboratory population, it appears that when krill shrink, the crystalline cone number remains relatively ...

Length-at-age juvenile Patagonian toothfish Dissostichus eleginoides
Abstract: The fishery for Patagonian toothfish is one of the most valuable in the CCAMLR Area ... . Age based models are used to assess the status of the stocks of this species. Although age can be ... estimated using otoliths it has proven difficult for these to be validated. During a recent trawl survey the ... length density of juvenile toothfish in the catches had a clearly defined polymodal distribution. The age ...
