CONDITIONING SMOM USING THE AGREED CALENDAR OF OBSERVED CHANGES IN PREDATOR AND KRILL ABUNDANCE: A FURTHER STEP IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF A MANAGEMENT PROCEDURE FOR KRILL FISHERIES IN AREA 48
Abstract: The updated version of the Spatial Multi-species Operating Model (SMOM) of krill ... -predator-fishery dynamics described in an accompanying paper is conditioned using the WG-SAM set of ... reference observations for Area 48 (the SAM calendar). Results are presented for two implementations of SMOM ... , one with the time series of krill abundance fixed on input, and the other incorporating an explicit ...

Temporal scales of foraging in a marine predator: implications for interpreting the distribution of prey
Abstract: The pattern of prey distribution can profoundly affect the foraging behavior and ... success of a predator. In pelagic marine ecosystems, where prey is often patchily distributed, predators ... must be able to adapt quickly to changes in the spatial patterning of prey. Antarctic fur seals feed ... indication of the distance between patches. The frequency distribution of intervals between bouts of foraging ...

Validation of age determination in Notothenia coriiceps, by means of a tag-recapture experiment at potter cover, South Shetland Islands
Abstract: Of 409 Notothenia coriiceps specimens tagged and released at Potter Cove, South ... of 11-21 months. A comparison was carried out between the annuli found in scales removed before and ... after the period of liberty. In scales of those specimens recovered after 11-13 months, one extra ... closely spaced sclerites zones, which corresponded with an elapse of two winter seasons. The comparative ...

Abstract: Whole otoliths and scales were used for a simultaneous age determination of juvenile ... Islands. Results from the analysis of both structures agreed in 95.5%. Likewise, the examination of ... otolith cross sections of chosen specimens confirmed in all the cases the age readings obtained from the ... second whole sagittal otolith. First October instead of the commonly accepted 1 July, was taken as the ...

Towards the development of an assessment of stock abundance for Subarea 88.2 SSRUs 88.2C–G
Abstract: This paper frames a discussion for improving the assessment of toothfish abundance for ... SSRUs 88.2C–G. We initially provide a characterisation of the fishery and a summary of available tagging ... fish have been recaptured. It is likely that the lack of recaptures of tagged fish in this region has ... been caused primarily by the poor spatial overlap of released tagged fish with subsequent fishing ...
