1. Report of the WG-FSA Intersessional Subgroup on Sampling Catches from Longlines

   Abstract:  In 2001, WG-FSA asked the Intersessional Subgroup on Sampling Catches from Longlines to develop recommendations on 1) subsampling methods using frames and sampling units based on time and gear; 2) the allocation of observer effort within longline haul and between hauls; and 3) the

2. Revised selectivities for Dissostichus eleginoides taken by longliners in Subarea 48.3

   Abstract:  Kirkwood and Agnew (2001, paper WG-FSA-01/48) proposed an ad hoc method for estimating selectivity curves for toothfish taken by longliners around South Georgia and Shag Rocks over the period 1995 – 1999. This method was applied by WG-FSA-01, with minor amendments, to estimate annual age

3. Evaluation of the effects of illegal, unregulated and unreported (IUU) fishing on the legal catch of fisheries for Dissostichus eleginoides

   Abstract:  CCAMLR currently establishes catch limits each year for Patagonian toothfish, Dissostichus eleginoides, that can be sustained over the generation time of the species, maintaining the population at a productive level with only a small chance of become depleted. The increasing levels of

4. Preliminary assessment of Dissostichus eleginoides on the Heard Island Plateau (Division 58.5.2) based on a survey in May 2002

   Abstract:  A survey of Patagonian toothfish, Dissostichus eleginoides, was undertaken in Division 58.5.2 in the vicinity of Heard Island in May 2002 to provide the information for an assessment of long-term annual yield in the 2002/2003 CCAMLR season and beyond. This paper provides a preliminary

5. An update on conversion factors for toothfish in the Ross Sea (Subareas 88.1 and 88.2)

   Abstract:  This paper reports on continuing exploration of conversion factors and the relationship between product weight & length frequency distribution in the exploratory fishery for Dissostichus spp. in sub-area 88.1 and more recently in sub-area 88.2. Author(s):  J.M. Fenaughty and N.W. McL

7. Food and feeding of two Channichthyids, Champsocephalus gunnari and Chaenocephalus aceratus, around Elephant Island and in the South Shetland Islands (Subarea 48.1) in 2001 and 2002

   Abstract:  Data on food and feeding of two icefish species, Champsocephalus gunnari and Chaenocephalus aceratus, were collected in the Elephant Island – South Shetland Islands region during the AMLR cruise in March 2001 with RV ‘Yuzhmorgeologiya’ and ANTXIX/3 in January – February 2002 with RV

8. Age-at-length of Patagonian toothfish from the Falkland/Malvinas Islands

   Abstract:  To provide an age-length key for use in modelling the age structure of the Patagonian toothfish stock around the Falkland Islands, we used otoliths to estimate the age of a sample of 1893 Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) captured by trawl and in the longline fishery. We

9. Age-at-length of Patagonian toothfish from South Georgia

   Abstract:  To provide an age-length key for use in modelling the age structure of the Patagonian toothfish stock around South Georgia, we used otoliths to estimate the age of a sample of 264 Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) captured in the longline fishery. We used a thin section

10. An updated assessment of the toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) resource in the Prince Edward Islands vicinity and extension taking commercial catch-at-length data into account

    Abstract:  The CPUE-based Age-Structured Production Model (ASPM) assessment of this resource by Brandão et al. (2001) is updated to take account of further catch and effort data that have become available over the past year. This leads to an improved picture of resource status compared to a year
