Persistent organic pollutants in stomach contents of Adélie penguins from Edmonson Point (Victoria Land, Antarctica)
input of these persistent organic pollutants (POPs) through diet also was evaluated. The following ... concentration gradient of PCB isomer-specific classes was revealed: hepta-CB??hexa-CB??penta-CB. The most ... abundant congeners were PCB189, PCB134 and PCB151, while PCB126 was the most abundant among coplanar PCBs ... contamination and penguins’ diet in relation to sex during the mating season, when observations took place ...

Change-in-ratio and index-removal methods for population assessment and their application to snow crab (Chionoecetes opilio)
crabs (Chionoecetes opillio) in St. Mary's Bay, Newfoundland, before and after the fishery, and to ... for fisheries studies. We also show how to combine the two approaches in a single estimator. It is ... necessary to sample the population before and after the fishery, and to determine the total harvest and its ... composition, in order to use these methods. We use the methods to estimate the population of legal-size snow ...

Preliminary examination of otolith microchemistry to determine stock structure in Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) between SSRU 88.1C and 88.2H
CCAMLR SSRUs 88.1C (Ross Sea) and 88.2H (Amundsen Sea), could be differentiated by the trace elemental ... concentrations in the otolith edge and then to (ii) assess the potential of natal signatures to distinguish ... stocks among these regions. For the elements (Mg, Al and Sr) spatial variation in otolith chemistry was ... shown. This resulted in the correct classification of 63% of fish overall to their original capture ...
