1. Comparison of census methods for black-browed albatrosses breeding at the Ildefonso Archipelago, Chile

   Abstract:  Although a breeding population of black-browed albatrosses has been known to exist at the Ildefonso Archipelago, Chile, for > 90 years the population has never been censused using scientifically defendable methods. To estimate population size, and examine the accuracy and practicality

5. Review of biological parameters for Ross Sea skates

   Abstract:  Biological parameters were reviewed and updated for the two main species of skates taken as bycatch in the Ross Sea toothfish fishery: Amblyraja georgiana and Bathyraja cf. eatonii. Differences in length-weight relationships among regions raise doubt about the conspecificity of A.

6. Summary of Ross Sea skate tagging programme results

   Abstract:  Over 9,000 skates have been tagged and released in the Ross Sea over a period of seven years, and 47 (0.5%) have been recaptured. The recapture of tagged Amblyraja georgiana after up to four years at liberty shows that some skates survive and recover from being hauled out of depths of

8. Integrated weight longlines with paired streamer lines – best management practice for demersal longline fisheries: preliminary results

   Abstract:  Minimizing the time gear is available to seabirds by increasing the sink rate of longlines is one method to effectively reduce seabird catch rates. We fished normal unweighted longlines (UW) and integrated weight longlines (IW-50 g/m) with and without paired streamer lines (PS) in

10. Analysis of krill catch data from continuous and conventional trawls by the Saga Sea and Atlantic Navigator

    Abstract:  In this paper we analyse data on the distribution of catches, the size of krill and bycatch of larval fish taken by the Saga Sea fishing with continuous trawls in 2006, and the Atlantic Navigator which fished in 2005 using both continuous trawling and conventional trawling. The sizes of
