1. Ecoregionalisation of the Kerguelen and Crozet islands oceanic zone. Part I: Introduction and Kerguelen oceanic zone

   Abstract:  A workshop was held in Paris from June 6 to 9 th 2016. It was convened by Philippe Koubbi and Christophe Guinet. The main aim was to determine ecoregions in the Kerguelen oceanic zones to give orientations for extending the actual coastal natural reserve managed by the Terres Australes

2. Background papers considered relevant to the WG-EMM discussions on feedback management

   Abstract:  The United Kingdom has contributed funding to the US-based non-governmental organisation Oceanites, to support its ongoing Antarctic Site Inventory project, which monitors penguin populations across the Antarctic Peninsula.  The Antarctic Site Inventory data, together with data from

3. Background information to support development of a feedback management strategy for the krill fishery in Subarea 48.1

   Abstract:  Here we compile eight vignettes that, together, provide the background data and information needed to support development of a feedback management strategy for the krill fishery in Subarea 48.1. In this compilation, we provide support for combining SSMUs into groups of SSMUS (gSSMUs) to

4. Downward adjustments to local catch limits for the krill fishery in Subarea 48.1

   Abstract:  Here we compile four vignettes that, together, provide the basis for making downward adjustments to local catch limits for the krill fishery in Subarea 48.1.  We use the term local catch limit to refer to a catch limit that applies to a group of SSMUs (gSSMU), and the work presented here

5. Upward adjustments to local catch limits for the krill fishery in Subarea 48.1

   Abstract:  Here we compile three vignettes that, together, provide the basis for making upward adjustments to local catch limits for the krill fishery in Subarea 48.1.  We use the term local catch limit to refer to a catch limit that applies to a group of SSMUs (gSSMU), and the work presented here

6. A feedback management strategy for the krill fishery in Subarea 48.1

   Abstract:  We present a Stage-2 strategy for in-season feedback management (FBM) of the krill fishery in Subarea 48.1.  This strategy is a combination of two strategies that were separately proposed to the WG-EMM in 2015 and is based on a broad foundation of work undertaken to address a suite of

7. A brief review of information relevant to the establishment of a Krill Research Zone within the proposed Ross Sea Region Marine Protected Area

   Abstract:  At the close of the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources meeting in 2015, New Zealand and the United States introduced a revision to the proposed Ross Sea Region Marine Protected Area (RSRMPA) that included the addition of a Krill Research Zone (KRZ). A

8. Population status of Ross Sea killer whales (Orcinus orca, Type C) in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica, based on photo-identification studies

   Abstract:  We studied Ross Sea killer whales (RSKWs; Orcinus orca, Antarctic type C), a fish-eating ecotype, in McMurdo Sound, Antarctica, during 7 seasons, over a 14-year period from 2001/02 to 2014/15. Using photo-identification methods, we identified 352 individual RSKWs in the Sound and up to

9. Spatio–temporal dynamics of Antarctic krill fishery: identification of fishing hotspots

   Abstract:  Antarctic krill is a key species in the Southern Ocean food web and is also the target of the greatest fishery in Antarctic waters. Management of the fishery is based on a precautionary catch limit, representing 0.11 the allowable catch limit for CCAMLR Area 48, and further divided by

10. Density and geographical distribution of krill larvae on the Weddell – Scotia Confluence region during summer 2011

    Abstract:  The analysis of euphausiid larvae collected during january 2011 in the Weddell Scotia Confluence region show a strong decrease in the abundance of  Euphausia superba larvae and an increase in  Thysanoessa macrura. Oceanographic conditions didn’t show any significant variations respect
