1. Preliminary report on the South Orkneys Ecosystem Studies (SOES) field work undertaken by RRS James Clark Ross (JR15004) and associated field camps in January–February 2016

   Abstract:  This paper briefly describes the rationale and structure of the research cruise that formed a key component of the co-ordinated, multi-national South Orkney Ecosystems Studies focusing on the krill-based ecosystem in the main fishing area in Subarea 48 undertaken in the austral summer of

2. Is current management of the Antarctic krill fishery in the Atlantic sector of the Southern Ocean precautionary?

   Abstract:  This paper is a revised version of WG-EMM-15/28, which uses a question and answer format to explain the management of the Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) fishery in the subareas 48.1 to 48.4, and current knowledge about the state of the regional krill stock. The revisions provide a

3. A first assessment of marine Important Bird and Biodiversity Areas for penguins in Subarea 48.1 (Antarctic Peninsula, and South Shetland Islands) and Subarea 48.2 (South Orkney Islands)

   Abstract:  First attempt to systematically identify marine IBAs in the Antarctic Assessed all available penguin tracking data for Subarea 48.1 (Antarctic Peninsula, and South Shetland Islands) and Subarea 48.2 (South Orkney Islands) Developed new protocols for determining candidate IBAs based on

4. Classification of Southern Ocean krill and icefish echoes using Random Forests

   Abstract:  Target identification remains a challenge for acoustic surveys of marine fauna. Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, are typically identified through a combination of expert scrutiny of echograms and analysis of differences in mean volume backscattering strengths (S V; dB re 1 m-1)

5. Integrating Climate and Ecosystem Dynamics in the Southern Ocean (ICED) programme: developing links between ICED and CCAMLR

   Abstract:  Integrating Climate and Ecosystem Dynamics in the Southern Ocean (ICED) is a regional programme of the Integrated Marine Biogeochemistry and Ecosystem Research (IMBER) Programme and is closely linked with Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR). ICED is undertaking integrated

6. Temporal changes in sighting density indices of baleen whales in CCAMLR Subareas 48.1 and 48.2 based on three circumpolar sighting surveys

   Abstract:  This paper examines temporal changes in distribution and sighting density indices of krill-eater baleen whales in Subareas 48.1 and 48.2. This paper was prepared in response to a suggestion in EMM-15 that an analysis of historical cetacean surveys in IWC Area II could provide a context

7. Establishing time-limited Special Areas for Scientific Study in newly exposed marine areas following ice shelf retreat or collapse in Subarea 48.1, Subarea 48.5 and Subarea 88.3 – Clarifications and options to further develop the 2015 proposal

   Abstract:  In 2015 the European Union proposed a draft Conservation Measure (CM) with the aim of promoting and facilitating scientific research in newly exposed marine areas following ice shelf retreat or collapse around the Antarctic Peninsula (CCAMLR-XXXIV/21). The proposed CM would establish

8. Using predators and their prey to characterise the status of the marine ecosystem at South Georgia

   Abstract:  Increased awareness about the present status of marine systems, including those where fisheries target the prey of natural predators, has led to recommendations about how information on the status of marine predators might be used to inform ecosystem-based management approaches. In the

9. Monitoring variability and change in the plankton communities of the Scotia Sea through Continuous Plankton Recorder surveys

   Abstract:  The northern regions of the Scotia Sea demonstrate notable variability in environmental conditions, particularly in the location of the Polar Front. This has a strong influence on patterns of productivity and distribution of plankton, with implications to higher trophic levels, including
