Spatial overlap of krill-dependent predators and krill fishery catches and a proposal for subdivision of catch limits in Subarea 48.1
Abstract: Progressing from Stage 1 to Stage 2 of a feedback management strategy requires a better ... understanding of spatial overlap between predators and fishing activity. We provide estimates of the spatial ... in Subarea 48.1. In general, overlap of summer and winter foraging habitats with krill catches in ... might affect the distribution of fishing effort. A comparison of CEMP parameters from two years with ...

A bioenergetics model assessment of the prey consumption of Adélie penguins in Subarea 48.1 and 48.2
Abstract: We present a preliminary analysis to estimate the consumption of prey by Adélie ... breeding. We parameterised our analysis using data from the population of Adélie penguins breeding at Signy ... Island, South Orkneys. We show that the highest levels of consumption occur during the crèche and pre ... -moult period, consistent with similar studies of Adélie penguins breeding in East Antarctica. On the ...
