2. Second International Fishers Forum: executive summary Western Pacific Regional Fishery Management Council

   Abstract:  While work to develop solutions to reduce the bycatch of seabirds and sea turtles by longline gear has begun, fishermen, managers and scientists recognize that these efforts must be enhanced and collaboration must be pursued internationally as these species are highly migratory,

3. The area north of Joinville–D’Urville Islands (Subarea 48.1) a former fishing ground at the tip of the Antarctic Peninsula – revisited

   Abstract:  The former fishing ground off Joinville – D’Urville Island was revisited in the course of the Antarctic Expedition ANT XIX/3 with RV ‘Polarstern’ in February 2002. Five hauls were conducted north of Joinville Island – D’Urville Island at 149 m to 282 m depth on 21 February 2002.

4. Shedding new light on the life cycle of mackerel icefish in the Southern Ocean

   Abstract:  Mackerel icefish (Champsocephalus gunnari) has a widespread distribution in the Atlantic and Indian Ocean sectors of the low-Antarctic region. Biological characteristics differ considerably between populations in the southern Scotia Arc and those living further to the north. Fish living

5. The use of Antarctic shags to monitor coastal fish populations: evaluation and proposals after five years of test of a standard method

   Abstract:  This overview reflects the main points of the feasibility of using the Antarctic Shag as a monitor of inshore demersal fish populations, including species of commercial importance. Likewise, the history of the development of this theme in relation to the EMM and FSA Working Groups of

6. Mackerel icefish size and age at South Georgia and Shag Rocks

   Abstract:  Mackerel icefish, Champsocephalus gunnari (Lönnberg), at South Georgia and Shag Rocks in the Southern Ocean have supported a fishery since the 1970s. This study has analysed the length-frequency distribution of C. gunnari from 10 bottom trawl surveys at South Georgia and 9 at Shag Rocks

7. Population dynamics of the wandering albatross Diomedea exulans at Marion Island: long-line fishing and environmental influences

   Abstract:  The subantarctic Prince Edward Islands (Marion and Prince Edward) support the largest breeding population of the Vulnerable wandering albatross Diomedea exulans. The numbers of birds breeding in the Marion Island population has fluctuated over the past three decades and appears to be the

8. The oldest known banded wandering albatross Diomedea exulans at the Prince Edward Islands

   Abstract:  The oldest known wandering albatross Diomedea exulans at the Prince Edward Islands is estimated to have been approximately half a century old when last recaptured in 2001. Demographic studies need to continue for several more decades before the true maximum longevity of the species

9. Unusual breeding by seabirds at Marion Island during 1997/98

   Abstract:  In 1997/98, breeding at subantarctic Marion Island was exceptionally good for five species of seabirds capable of foraging over wide areas and for a tern. The number of king penguin Aptenodytes patagonicus chicks surviving to the start of spring in 1997 was considerably more than

10. Conserving surface-nesting seabirds at the Prince Edward Islands: the roles of research, monitoring and legislation

    Abstract:  South Africa’s subantarctic Prince Edward Islands support substantial proportions of the global populations of a number of surface-nesting seabirds. Populations of most of these have decreased at the islands since the 1980s and 12 of 16 species are regarded as Threatened or Near
