1. FLAG STATUS OF SOME VESSELS ON THE NCP-IUU VESSEL LIST

   Abstract:  FLAG STATUS OF SOME VESSELS ON THE NCP-IUU VESSEL LIST In June 2010, the EU forwarded a report that Togo had instigated proceedings to deregister the Togolese-flagged fishing vessels Bigaro, Carmela, Typhoon-1, Chu Lim, Rex and Zeus which are all included on the NCP-IUU Vessel List. 2.

2. RECENT TRENDS IN NUMBERS OF CROZET SHAGS BREEDING AT THE PRINCE EDWARD ISLANDS

   Abstract:  Numbers of Crozet shags Phalacrocorax [atriceps] melanogenis breeding at Marion Island decreased by more than 70% from 840 pairs in 1994/95 to 220 pairs in 2003/04 and then increased to some 500 pairs in 2008/09. The trends are thought to have been influenced by breeding success, which

3. COMPARING CEMP INDICES TO INFORM FEEDBACK MANAGEMENT OF THE ANTARCTIC KRILL FISHERY

   Abstract:  Despite uncertainties about interactions between ecosystems and fisheries, the ability to adjust activity of the Antarctic krill fishery based on the state of krill-dependent predators is a recognized goal of the CCAMLR. We suggest that progress toward a feedback management approach can

4. A RE-ANALYSIS AND UPDATE OF THE ANTARCTIC KRILL BIOMASS IN THE SOUTH SHETLAND ISLANDS, THROUGH 2011

   Abstract:  Acoustically based estimates of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) biomass, and net-based estimates of krill density and recruitment are recalculated for the years 1996 through 2011. Recent changes in the acoustic methodology and target strength models are the basis for the

5. NEW REGIONAL-SCALE SURVEYS OF THE ADÉLIE PENGUIN BREEDING POPULATION IN PRYDZ BAY: A STEP TOWARDS IMPROVED ESTIMATION OF KRILL CONSUMPTION IN EAST ANTARCTICA

   Abstract:  Understanding circumpolar penguin abundance is critical for developing realistic ecosystem models that might be used to inform the management of impacts due to climate change or fisheries. A review of historical Adélie penguin survey data in east Antarctica revealed Prydz Bay as a

6. POTENTIAL PHENOLOGICAL RESPONSES TO ENVIRONMENTAL VARIABILITY AND CHANGE FOR ADÉLIE PENGUINS

   Abstract:  Phenological changes are touted to be an early indication of species response to environmental change and have been reported for a range of species around the globe. In Antarctica, there is a clear indication of phenological changes for the Adélie penguin (Pygoscelis adeliae) with

7. A LARGE-SCALE SURVEY OF ADÉLIE PENGUIN BREEDING DISTRIBUTION IN EAST ANTARCTICA

   Abstract:  A recent gap analysis of knowledge of the breeding distribution of the Adélie penguin across the Australian Antarctic Territory in east Antarctica found that approximately half of the species’ potential breeding habitat had no evidence of ever being searched. With such incomplete

8. PROPOSAL OF ACOUSTIC SURVEY OF ANTARCTIC KRILL USING FISHING VESSEL

   Abstract:  Japan is trying to use information obtained through the fishery effectively, and planning an acoustic survey using a commercial krill fishing vessel that enables annual data collection. This proposal focuses on monitoring yearly trend of krill distribution and fishing ground formation.

9. RESEARCH PLAN AND RESULTS OF PRELIMINARY OBSERVATION ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY OF ANTARCTIC KRILL ESCAPEMENT FROM A TRAWL NET

   Abstract:  We made a survey plan to observe krill escapement, attached an underwater video camera on a trawl net of a Japanese commercial trawler, and started observation to collect video images of krill passage through the rope and netting parts of the trawl net. Preliminary examination of video

10. USING AUTOMATED CAMERAS AS A COST-EFFECTIVE MEANS OF EXTENDING LAND-BASED PREDATOR MONITORING

    Abstract:  Cameras and other optical instruments are increasingly being used as cheap, convenient and reliable tools for surveillance and monitoring. This paper describes (1) the kinds of observations and measurements relevant to CEMP that can be obtained from an automated camera system
