1. METHODS FOR IMPLEMENTING CONSERVATION MEASURE 22-06: AN IMPACT ASSESSMENT FRAMEWORK FOR BOTTOM IMPACTING FISHING METHODS IN THE CCAMLR AREA

   Abstract:  This paper presents a framework to assess and quantify the likely cumulative impact on potential VMEs from bottom fishing activity. The approach has been designed to facilitate standardized application across gear types and areas to allow comparisons between fisheries employing different

2. A NON-HIERARCHICAL TAXONOMIC KEY FOR SEABIRD IDENTIFICATION IN THE HEARD ISLAND AND MCDONALD ISLANDS AND KERGUELEN ISLAND FISHERIES.

   Abstract:  A non-hierarchical seabird identification key has been produced to improve the identification of seabirds that come into contact with or are seen in the vicinity of fishing operations in the Heard and McDonald Islands region. This paper provides the background and reasoning behind the

4. PRELIMINARY ASSESSMENT OF MACKEREL ICEFISH, CHAMPSOCEPHALUS GUNNARI, IN THE VICINITY OF HEARD ISLAND AND MCDONALD ISLANDS (DIVISION 58.5.2), BASED ON A SURVEY IN JULY 2008, USING THE GENERALISED YIELD MODEL

   Abstract:  A survey of mackerel icefish, Champsocephalus gunnari, was undertaken in Division 58.5.2 in the vicinity of Heard Island in July 2008 to provide the information for an assessment of short-term annual yield in the 2008/2009 CCAMLR season. This paper provides a preliminary assessment of

5. REPORT ON A LONGLINE SURVEY CONDUCTED BY THE FV JANAS IN MAY 2008 ON BANZARE BANK, AND AN ASSESSMENT OF THE STATUS OF DISSOSTICHUS SPP. IN DIVISION 58.4.3B

   Abstract:  In May 2008, a randomised longline survey, consisting of 15 standardised sets over 2 strata covering areas of commercial fishing activity was conducted from aboard the Australian flagged longliner FV Janas BANZARE Bank within CCAMLR Statistical Division 58.4.3b. Catch rates were very low

6. ESTIMATING THE SWEPT AREA OF DEMERSAL LONGLINES BASED ON IN-SITU VIDEO FOOTAGE

   Abstract:  During a longline survey on BANZARE Bank (Division 58.4.3b) in May 2008, an in-line video camera recorded the interactions between the main line and the benthos during setting and hauling. Footage revealed that after setting the line moved very little, despite cross currents. During

7. FIELD IDENTIFICATION GUIDE TO HEARD ISLAND AND MCDONALD ISLAND (HIMI) BENTHIC INVERTEBRATES

   Abstract:  At CCAMLR-XXVI the Working Group on Fish Stock Assessment (WG-FSA) noted a lack of specific reference material for the identification of benthic invertebrates in areas specific to which observers carry out their activities (SC-CAMLR-XXVI: Annex 5, paragraph 6.32). To improve the standard

9. EXPECTED TAG RECAPTURE RATES FROM NEW AND EXPLORATORY FISHERIES FOR DISSOSTICHUS SPP.

   Abstract:  Tag recapture rates in new and exploratory Dissostichus spp. fisheries in the southern Indian Ocean sector of the CCAMLR area are examined. In particular, the potential for tagging programs in new and exploratory fisheries to yield sufficient data to be of use in determining TAC’s in the

10. A RISK MANAGEMENT FRAMEWORK FOR AVOIDING SIGNIFICANT ADVERSE IMPACTS OF BOTTOM FISHING GEAR ON VULNERABLE MARINE ECOSYSTEMS

    Abstract:  CCAMLR adopted a new conservation measure in 2007 (CM 22-06) to ensure that significant adverse impacts of bottom fishing gear on Vulnerable Marine Ecosystems (VMEs) are avoided. Due to the high levels of uncertainty surrounding both the evidence of VME presence and the consequences of
