1. Fish identification guide for Observers in CCAMLR krill fisheries

   Abstract:  The Secretariat, with assistance from Prof Tetsuo Iwami, has developed a simple fish field guide designed to assist in improving the quality of observer by-catch data collected in the CCAMLR krill fishery. The draft guide provided includes a single key to distinguish fish families and 3

2. Adélie penguin breeder abundance in CCAMLR Divisions 58.4.1 and 58.4.2

   Abstract:  WG-EMM-STAPP is charged with estimating krill consumption by the major air-breathing predators of the Southern Ocean including ice-breeding seals, fur seals, penguins and flying seabirds. The priority region for estimation is Area 48, but the krill consumption estimates are also being

4. New contributions to penguin monitoring to help underpin the development of feedback management approaches for the Antarctic krill fishery

   Abstract:  In this paper we provide a brief summary of new plans for the study of penguin populations and associated population processes over the coming years. We envisage that our studies will provide new and up-to-date information about penguin population sizes and trends, and information about

5. Developing research on Antarctic krill to facilitate the development and updating of feedback management procedures

   Abstract:  Antarctic krill fisheries have the potential to be in the top 10 fisheries of the world in terms of biomass production. The expansion of the fishery from current levels appears inevitable given the demand for protein and the efficiencies now being developed in the fishery.  CCAMLR is

6. ICED workshop and conference session on Southern Ocean foodwebs and scenarios of change

   Abstract:  The ICED programme is investigating how climate change might impact Southern Ocean ecosystems in order to help inform management of Southern Ocean fisheries. ICED will convene a workshop and conference session in the near future in order to address these issues. The theme of the November

7. Inter-annual variability in krill density at South Georgia: 1997–2012

   Abstract:  Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) are a key species in Southern Ocean ecosystems, maintaining very large numbers of predators, and fluctuations in their abundance can affect the overall structure and functioning of the ecosystems. The inter-annual variability in the abundance and

10. Assessing status and change in Southern Ocean ecosystems

    Abstract:  A great challenge for Southern Ocean ecosystem science is to assess the status and trends of Southern Ocean marine ecosystems overall, against which change in ecosystem structure and function can be unambiguously assessed in the future.  This challenge includes being able to assess the
