Abstract:
The fish diet (45% of total diet by weight) of Wandering Albatrosses rearing chicks at South Georgia during the austral winters of 1983 and 1984 was investigated using otoliths retrieved from regurgitations. These provide the first quantitative data for this species and for any albatross. By number of identified otoliths (32% could be identified only as ?Macrouridae and ?Moridae), Read More

The terrestrial environment of Signy Island, South Orkney Islands, maritime Antarctic, is undergoing rapid and possibly irreversible change caused by a natural biological agent. During the past decade there has been a dramatic increase in the number of Antarctic fur seals Arctocephalus gazella coming ashore on the island during the short summers.

As part of the NMFS/AMLR program to provide information for the effective management of Antarctica’s marine living resources, three permanent monitoring sites were established on the western side of the Antarctic Peninsula. Listed from north to south, these were Seal Island (Elephant Island), Admiralty Bay (King George Island) and Palmer Station (Anvers Island). During 1987 - 1988, preliminary Read More

A series of fronts form which collectively are referred to as the Weddell-Scotia Confluence. Within the Confluence region the Weddell Gyre water is separated from the Pacific or Scotia Sea Read More

Abstract:
A general framework is presented to develop, test and integrate component models of the distribution and dynamics of Antarctic krill population at various spatial and temporal scales. We suggest that models of increasing complexity be developed iteratively for variability and patchiness of krill abundance. Incremental models should then be compared to statistical descriptions of the observed Read More

Joint Polish/American hydroacoustic survey of Elephant Island in the vicinity of King George Island, 1988 United States of America
Abstract:
The hydroacoustic survey found a low krill abundance in most areas covered by last years survey. The total biomass in the vicinity of Elephant Island was estimated from 120 kHz data to be 260 k tons and that in the Bransfield Strait South of King George Island was 39 k tons for a total of 299 k tons in the combined areas. The estimated 200 kHz survey data were higher, giving 715 k tons near Read More

Statistical problems in krill stock hydroacoustic assessments United States of America

Two primary issues are at question for hydroacoustic assessments of krill, The first is the methods applied to establish biomass in a survey area and the second is the improvement in accuracy of target-strength measurements. In the case of statistical methods, there are no clear guidelines for deciding what method is most appropriate, this is made even more difficult by the fact that most Read More

Results of fish stock assessment survey, South Georgia, December 1987 – January 1988 United States of America
Abstract:
Commercial fish stocks around South Georgia have been declining since the early 1970's. A survey to monitor these stocks was carried out from December 1987 to January 1988. It complements earlier surveys in the same area and showed that most of the stocks are continuing to decline. Notothenia rossii is showing no signs of recovery and Champsocephalus gunnari is likely to continue declining in Read More

Shifts in the demersal fish community of South Georgia United States of America
Abstract:
The heavily exploited fish stocks of South Georgia have been declining since the early 1970's. Use of a non-parametric method revealed a significant change in this community from the 1986/87 survey to the 1987/88 survey. This change was the result of reductions in the abundance of Champsocephalus gunnari and Notothenia squamifrons, and the increased presence of Pseudochaenichthys georgianus. Read More

Acoustic data analysis and models of krill spatial distribution United States of America

The wavenumber spectrum resembles a white noise at scales of 2-20 km, although at Read More

Distribution of phytoplankton in the mixed layer: implication of krill abundance United States of America
Abstract:
The vertical trajectory of phytoplankton in the Antarctic ocean is modelled as a random walk with a diffusivity derived from a simple Ekman layer model and turbulence theory. The surface mixing layer is shallow, but diffusion is large enough to effect the vertical distribution of phytoplankton in the upper ocean.
