4. IS THE BYCATCH OF VULNERABLE INVERTEBRATE TAXA ASSOCIATED WITH HIGH CATCH RATES OF FISH IN THE ROSS SEA LONGLINE FISHERIES?

   Abstract:  Protecting vulnerable marine ecosystems (VMEs) from significant adverse impacts caused by fishing activities requires knowledge of the distribution of those communities relative to the fishing footprint. If high fish catch rates are associated with habitats where VMEs are found, impacts

5. IDENTIFYING TAXONOMIC GROUPS AS VULNERABLE TO BOTTOM LONGLINE FISHING GEAR IN THE ROSS SEA REGION

   Abstract:  Implementing measures to avoid significant adverse impacts to vulnerable marine ecosystems (VMEs) requires a specific list of the taxa that are considered vulnerable. New Zealand identified an interim list of taxa to monitor in fishery bycatch in the Ross Sea as part of its 2008 benthic

6. DETECTION OF COLD SEEPS AND HYDROTHERMAL VENTS

   Abstract:  Cold seeps and hydrothermal vents can be detected by a number of oceanographic and geophysical techniques as well as the recovery of characteristic organisms. While the definitive identification of a seep or vent and its accompanying fauna is seldom unequivocal without significant effort

7. PREDICTING THE VULNERABILITY OF BRYOZOANS AND SPONGES TO DISTURBANCE USING LIFE-HISTORY CHARACTERISTICS

   Abstract:  Following on from earlier analyses presented to WG-EMM, meta-analyses of life-history characteristics and their relationships with physical and chemical variables were undertaken for habitat-forming invertebrates other than cnidarians. Particular focus was placed on bryozoans and sponges

10. PREDICTING SPECIES DISTRIBUTIONS FROM MUSEUM AND HERBARIUM RECORDS USING MULTI-RESPONSE MODELS FITTED WITH MULTIVARIATE ADAPTIVE REGRESSION SPLINES

    Abstract:  Current circumstances — that the majority of species distribution records exist as presence-only data (e.g. from museums and herbaria), and that there is an established need for predictions of species distributions — mean that scientists and conservation managers seek to develop robust
