MULTIPLE TIME SCALES OF VARIABILITY IN THE KRILL POPULATION AT SOUTH GEORGIA
Abstract: The South Georgia region supports a high biomass of krill that is the subject to high ... inter-annual variability. The lack of a self-sustaining krill population at South Georgia means ... ecosystem-based management of any krill fishery in the region. Krill acoustic density data from surveys ... conducted in the early, middle and late period of the summers of 2001 to 2005, together with krill ...
