4. A krill–predator–fishery model for evaluating candidate management procedures

   Abstract:  The CCAMLR has recognised the need to subdivide the precautionary krill catch limit for Statistical Area 48 amongst smaller spatial units in order to minimize the localized depletion of krill in predator foraging areas. These smaller spatial units, termed small-scale management units

6. Modelling the impact of krill fishing on seal and penguin colonies

   Abstract:  A key area of concern highlighted by the Scientific Committee of the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) concerns the potential overlap of the krill fishery with the foraging area of land-based predators such as seals and penguins in the

7. Some additional data challenge the concept of the distribution of the gravid krill females related to bottom depths

   Abstract:  The distribution of krill females of the different maturity stages was considered to reveal the preferable bottom depths for the spawning. Calculations based on the three expanded scientific surveys and numerous data from observers revealed no statistically reliable tendency in the

8. Preliminary report of the Japanese RV Kaiyo Maru survey in the Ross Sea and adjacent waters, Antarctica, in 2004/05

   Abstract:  A survey of the Japanese R/V Kaiyo Maru was carried out to collect data simultaneously on ecological interaction of environment – Antarctic krill – whales in the Ross Sea and adjacent waters during December 2004 and February 2005. Transect lines along 165E, 175E, 180, 175W, 170W and 165W

9. Time series of Drake Passage Oscillation Index (DPOI) from 1952 to 2005, Antarctica

   Abstract:  An assessment of the environmental processes influencing variability in the recruitment and density of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba DANA) is important as variability in krill stocks affects the Antarctic marine ecosystem as a whole. Naganobu et al. (1999) had assessed variability

10. Developing a carbon-budget trophic model of the Ross Sea, Antarctica: work in progress

    Abstract:  We report on the development of a carbon-budget trophic-model of the Ross Sea. We provisionally defined the food web of the Ross Sea as having the following functional compartments: birds, seals, toothed whales, baleen whales, large bentho-pelagic predatory fish (mainly adult Antarctic
