CCAMLR convenes meetings on a range of topics each year. Since 1982, the annual meetings of the Commission (CCAMLR) and Scientific Committee (SC-CAMLR) have been convened in Hobart, Australia, in CCAMLR’s four official languages (English, French, Russian and Spanish) using simultaneous interpretation.
The fisheries in the Convention Area currently target Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides), Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni), mackerel icefish (Champsocephalus gunnari) and Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba). These fisheries are managed using the ecosystem-based and precautionary approach, and management objectives which balance ‘conservation’ and ‘rational use’ of living resources and maintain existing ecological relationships.
La ciencia es de importancia fundamental para la CCRVMA. La Convención propiamente dicha se originó de la preocupación existente en el ámbito científico ante la posibilidad de que, tras la explotación insostenible de peces en las aguas subantárticas realizada desde fines de los sesenta hasta mediados de los setenta, el interés emergente en una explotación a gran escala de kril antártico llevara a consecuencias drásticas para el ecosistema.
