1. Climate change and precautionary spatial protection: seasonal sea ice

   Abstract:   Regional climate change is now known to be well established in the Antarctic; however, the implications for biological systems remain poorly understood. Investigating how marine species respond to climate change is potentially best carried out in regions and with species that have been

2. Marine Protected Areas in the Southern Ocean: update on current status of designated areas

   Abstract:  The development of a representative system of Antarctic marine protected areas (MPAs) will require up to date information on the location, conservation aims and current status of protected areas designated within the Convention Area. As at August 2011, there is one designated MPA managed

3. A toolbox of Marine Protected Area management techniques for the area covered by the Antarctic Treaty and by CCAMLR

   Abstract:  This paper is submitted for background information.  Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) are an important tool for biodiversity protection and marine conservation programmes globally. Although most MPAs have been established relatively recently compared to protected areas on land, there is

4. Designing Marine Protected Area networks: insights from the CHARM3 project

   Abstract:  This paper presents results from two analyses that have been undertaken as part of Action 12 of the CHARM3 project, which focuses on spatial conservation planning in the English Channel. The first analysis investigates the use of species area curves for setting marine habitat targets and

5. A hierarchical classification of benthic biodiversity and assessment of protected areas in the Southern Ocean

   Abstract:  An international effort is underway to establish a representative system of marine protected areas (MPAs) in the Southern Ocean to help provide for the long-term conservation of marine biodiversity in the region. Critical to this undertaking is understanding the distribution of benthic

6. Conservation of Antarctic pack-ice seals with increasing krill fishing and environmental change

   Abstract:  The management of Antarctic krill and conservation of its predators requires understanding about the compound effects of changing habitats, ecosystem interactions, and fishing practices. For Antarctic pack-ice seals, a main group of krill predators, we report the spatial density and

7. Biodiversity of the benthos off Kerguelen Islands: overview and perspectives

   Abstract:  The Kerguelen Plateau possesses a very diverse benthic fauna. Over the years, the number of species recorded from the Kerguelen has substantially increased. From 172 species reported by Arnaud (1974), the total number of species has increased dramatically to 735 (Jouventin et al., 1996)

8. Estimating the biodiversity of the sub-Antarctic Indian part for the ecoregionalisation of CCAMLR areas 58.5.1 and 58.6: Part II. foraging habitats of top predators from French Antarctic Territories – areas of ecological significance in the Southern Ocean

   Abstract:  Preliminary analysis of long term dataset on individual tracking of 19 species of seabirds and seals breeding in the French Southern Territories (Crozet, Kerguelen and Amsterdam Islands) to identify area of importance for conservation in the Southern Ocean. The preliminary results on

9. Major fishery events in Kerguelen Islands: Notothenia rossii, Champsocephalus gunnari, Dissostichus eleginoides – current distribution and status of stocks

   Abstract:  The large-scale trawl exploitation targeting virgin stocks of marbled notothenia (Notothenia rossii) off the Kerguelen Islands occurred after the discovery by the Soviet Union scouting fishing fleet of the fishing grounds in the early 1970’s. The fishery shifted to icefish

10. Estimating the biodiversity of the sub-Antarctic Indian part for ecoregionalisation: Part I. Pelagic realm of CCAMLR areas 58.5.1 and 58.6

    Abstract:  Two studies are tabled for the Subantarctic pelagic area of CCAMLR areas 58.5.1 and 58.6, which covers the Crozet Basin and the north of the Kerguelen Plateau: one based on marine pelagic species (plankton and fish), and the second on top predators. In this report, we followed three
