Seasonal and interannual variability of krill, salp and other zooplankton populations in the northwest Antarctic Peninsula region: summer 2001 in relation to the Long-Term AMLR Data Set
Abstract: The US AMLR Program conducted large area surveys in the Elephant Island-South Shetland ... field seasons to assess interannual variations. Mean and median krill abundance values in the Elephant ... Island area during the 2000/2001 field season were intermediate to highs in 1996 and lows in 1999 ... . Increased abundance relative to 1999 resulted in part from recruitment of the 1998/99 and 1999/2000 year ...

Avoidance of incidental mortality of seabirds and the implementation of Conservation Measure 169/XVII in Statistical Subarea 88.1 in the 1998/99 season
Abstract: New Zealand conducted Longline weighting trials during the 1998/99 fishery for ... provisions in Conservation Measure 169/XVII. The provisions included strictly applied line-weighting regimes ... and rigorous monitoring of line sink rates. In the trials, two autoline vessels set weighted longlines ... were used to record the actual sink rate achieved on 30% of all sets. For all sets combined the average ...
