Developing a carbon-budget trophic model of the Ross Sea, Antarctica: work in progress
Abstract: We report on the development of a carbon-budget trophic-model of the Ross Sea. We ... provisionally defined the food web of the Ross Sea as having the following functional compartments: birds, seals ... heterotrophs, water column zooplankton (ciliates, heterotrophic flagellates, mesozooplankton), three groups of ... column, ice, and benthic). The simple trophic model requires well over a hundred parameters, each of ...

Further development and progress towards evaluation of an Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) stock model for the Ross Sea
Abstract: This report outlines the development of a Bayesian sex and age structured population ... model for the assessment of Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) in the Ross Sea (Subareas 88.1 ... and 88.2), and initial progress towards evaluation of spatially explicit models. Three model scenarios ... either two or three discrete areas, with migrations of fish between areas. The 2-area model appeared to ...

Populations of surface-nesting seabirds at Marion Island, 1994/95 to 2002/03
Abstract: During the 1990s and early 2000s, populations of surface-nesting seabirds at Marion ... Island showed different trends, but for the majority of species numbers decreased. Reduced numbers of ... attributed to an altered availability of food. Decreases in numbers of dark-mantled sooty albatrosses ... and possibly northern giant petrels M. halli may have resulted from mortality of birds in longline ...

Can trace element signatures in the otoliths of Dissostichus eleginoides record capture size?
Abstract: The elemental structure of growth increments in the otoliths of fish reflects the ... composition of water passing across the gills: as a result, elemental signatures can potentially be used to ... reconstruct the environmental history experienced by fish. To test whether the otolith elemental signatures of ... from the outer edges (which are laid down during the interval leading to capture) of otoliths taken ...
