1. A critical issue for feedback management – how do we determine the level of functional overlap between krill fishing operations and penguin foraging activity?

   Abstract:  The spatial distribution of the Antarctic krill fishery in Subareas 48.1 to 48.3 has changed over time. The majority of catches in Subarea 48.1 are now taken south of the South Shetland Islands, following regional decreases in seasonal sea-ice cover. As the cumulative spatial footprint

2. Net diagrams and MED of CM 21-03 for Korean Krill fishing vessels

   Abstract:  As required by Conservation Measure 21-03, Annex 21-03/A, net diagrams and mammal exclusion devices included in Korean krill fishery notifications are submitted by Korea. Author(s):  Delegation of the Republic of Korea Title:  Net diagrams and MED of CM 21-03 for Korean Krill fishing

3. CEMP Indices: 2015 update on data submissions and analyses

   Abstract:  The CCAMLR Ecosystem Monitoring Program (CEMP) was established to detect changes in krill-based ecosystems to provide a basis for regulating harvesting of Antarctic living marine resources in accordance with the ‘ecosystem approach’.  In 2015 data has been submitted by 9 Members for 15

4. Introduction of the recent Korean research activity and future plan on penguin breeding and behavior

   Abstract:  This report is a summary of the past and current penguin research efforts by the Korean Antarctic Program in Barton Peninsula on King George Island. On top of the routine and traditional census and monitoring, new protocols are being implemented more actively such as camera based

5. Acoustic and catch data collected by the fleet – relevance for feedback management

   Abstract:  The Norwegian fishing vessels involved in krill fisheries are also used to carry out abundance surveys around the South Orkney Islands. The involved companies have accepted running acoustic logging also during periods of commercial fishing. In this paper we give an overview of the

6. Antarctic krill; assessment of mesh size selectivity and escape mortality from trawls

   Abstract:  This working paper presents the aims and methodology for a three-year-project (commenced in 2015) assessing size selectivity and escape mortality of Antarctic krill from trawl nets. The project is widely based on acquired experiences from a completed study Net Escapement of Antarctic

7. Variability in krill length distribution in 48.1 derived from data collected by scientific observers

   Abstract:  Information on the length distribution of krill in the catch, and the spatial and temporal patterns of krill length in the population is essential to assess krill population status and dynamics, and the impacts of a fishery on the stocks. Here, we use generalised additive models (GAM)

8. Progress report 1: Proposal for GEF (Global Environment Facility) funding to support capacity building in the GEF-eligible CCAMLR Members

   Abstract:  In 2014, the Scientific Committee endorsed a proposal from South Africa that the Secretariat be tasked with developing a proposal for funding support from the Global Environment Facility to build capacity among GEF-eligible CCAMLR Member countries to strengthen their participation in

9. A biomass estimate of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) at the Balleny Islands

   Abstract:  The biomass of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) at the Balleny Islands, Antarctica (67° S 163° E) was estimated from an acoustic transect survey carried out in February 2015. Acoustic data processing followed the recommendations of CCAMLR SG-ASAM.  Two parameterisations of the krill

10. Towards developing diagnostics tools for fishery stock assessments

    Abstract:  In this paper, we describe developments towards a set of standard diagnostic principles and tools used to characterise assessment models. CCAMLR has yet to develop a set of recommended statistical diagnostics tools to support their evaluations. While there are a number of standard visual
