INVESTIGATING LENGTH AT MATURITY OF ANTARCTIC TOOTHFISH (DISSOSTICHUS MAWSONI) BASED ON SCIENTIFIC OBSERVERS’ DATA
Abstract: Through generalised linear models, the gonadosomatic index of Antarctic toothfish in ... the Ross Sea region was shown to vary with latitude, length and month. Limitations of the scientific ... observers’ staging data were highlighted and GSI is recommended as a better indicator of maturity status in ... Antarctic toothfish. Reports of histological analyses of a small number of Antarctic toothfish showed ...

Acoustic discrimination of southern ocean zooplankton
Abstract: Acoustic surveys in the vicinity of the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia revealed ... the existence of a number of horizontally extensive yet vertically discrete scattering layers in the ... upper 250 m of the water column. These layers were fished with a LonghurstHardy plankton recorder (LHPR ... ) and a multiple-opening 8 m2 rectangular mid-water trawl (RMT8). Analysis of catches suggested that ...

Management of C. gunnari in Subarea 48.3
Abstract: The management of Champsocephalus gunnari at South Georgia is complicated by the ... likelihood of substantial periodic variation in natural mortality rates. These may be associated with ... increased consumption of icefish by Antarctic fur seals in years of poor krill availability. Thus natural ... mortality of icefish may, in some years, increase by a large factor (assumed here to be 4) declining to ...

Modeling the growth dynamics of Antarctic krill
examine the growth dynamics of Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba. A system of coupled, ordinary ... differential equations was developed to describe the growth of krill between 2 and 60 mm. The metabolic ... resulted in the transfer of individuals to the next highest size class (growth), whereas negative net ... of model coefficients were constructed from an analysis of field and laboratory measurements provided ...

The diet of Antarctic fur seals Arctocephalus gazella during the breeding season at Heard Island
Heard Island fed mainly on fish with an average 95.2% of scats in monthly collections containing fish ... remains. Pelagic myctophids constituted more than 50% of fish taken by fur seals at the beginning of the ... summer season and again at the end when there was an influx of non-breeding male seals. During the middle ... period from October to December, fish from the surrounding shelf area comprised the bulk of the diet ...

A new bathymetric compilation for the South Orkney Islands, Antarctic Peninsula (49°–39°W to 64°–59°S): insights into the glacial development of the continental shelf
Abstract: We present a new, high resolution (300 m) bathymetric grid of the South Orkney Islands ... and surrounding continental shelf, northeast of the Antarctic Peninsula. The new grid, derived from a ... compilation of marine echo-sounding data improves previous regional bathymetric representations and helps to ... visualise the morphology of the shelf in unrivalled detail. The compilation forms important baseline ...
