Krill densities in ... winter were predominantly low (mean = 18.7 g m-2 SD 24.3) but rose substantially by summer in each year ... . within-year) could have led to the perceived between-year variation from previous summer surveys in the ... statistically different (P>0.05) from estimates derived from standard ship-based krill surveys in adjacent ...
