1. Observations of Adélie penguins in two seasons with contrasting weather and sea-ice conditions – a brief report

   Abstract:  The 2002-03 breeding season in comparison with 2000-01 at Edmondson Point was characterised by unusual sea ice and weather condition. Strong southerly winds and snow were experienced at the colony during December coinciding with hatching and the guard stage. The sea ice in the Ross Sea

3. Survey database

   Abstract:  Last year, WG-FSA discussed further work on the survey database. It was agreed that the Secretariat would distribute documents and specifications to Members to allow them to create software that exports data from their databases in CCAMLR format. It was also agreed that Members should

5. The diet of black-browed albatrosses at the Diego Ramirez Islands, Chile

   Abstract:  The diet of black-browed albatrosses was studied at Gonzalo Island, Diego Ramirez, Chile, during the early chick-rearing period of 2000, 2001 and 2002. Diet composition was determined by sampling chick stomach contents during January and February of each year. Reconstituted meal mass was

6. The Evangelistas Islets, Chile: a new breeding site for black-browed albatrosses

   Abstract:  A previously un-described population of black-browed albatrosses (Thalassarche melanophrys) is reported at the Evangelistas Islets, Straits of Magellan, Chile. The population was censused from aerial photographs taken on 13 October 2002 which yielded an estimate of the number of breeding

8. Is our attempt to estimate biomass of Antarctic fish from a multi-species survey appropriate for all targeted species? Notothenia rossii in the Atlantic Ocean sector – revisited

   Abstract:  Notothenia rossii was the first target species of the fishery in the Southern Ocean. The species has been heavily fished at the beginning of the 1970’s. The closure of the fishery for this species was one of the first conservation measures CCAMLR adopted in 1985. Fish biomass within a

9. Analysis of dietary overlap in Antarctic fish (Notothenioidei) from the South Shetland Islands: no evidence of food competition

   Abstract:  A dietary overlap analysis between notothenioid species was carried out among three fish assemblages at the South Shetland Island area. Using tyler’s (1972) method, the reoccurrence of main and secondary prey among fish predators was 33% in summer and 37% over the year at Potter Cove; 25
