Age-at-length of Patagonian toothfish from the Falkland/Malvinas Islands
Abstract: To provide an age-length key for use in modelling the age structure of the Patagonian ... toothfish stock around the Falkland Islands, we used otoliths to estimate the age of a sample of 1893 ... crenellations. Two readers undertook one reading each of the sections, estimating age using criteria agreed at ... reference ages. However, the second trainee reader consistently over-estimated the age of younger fish, and ...

A study of UK and Russian surveys using acoustics to augment trawling methods in shelf waters off South Georgia (Subarea 48.3)
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 ... portion of icefish biomass was located in the water column. Thus the traditional approach of using bottom ... during WG-FSA–2002. These results show that the current observation system for the collection of data for ...

Green krill, the indicator of micro- and nano-size phytoplankton availability to krill
Abstract: Size fractionated chlorophyll-a concentrations of surface seawater was measured (pico ... -, nano-, and micro-size fractions) during commercial krill operations in the waters north of the South ... Shetland Islands from late December, 1991 to mid-February, 1992. The proportion of green krill had ... the importance of micro- and nano-size phytoplanktons in terms of food source for the Antarctic krill ...
