Abstract:
WG-SAM and WG-FSA both have substantial and increasing workloads. Discussions have recently been directed towards trying to organise their roles and work schedules such that there is a more cohesive structure and apportioning of their work schedules. The discussions to be held at the 2016 Scientific Committee symposium will likely raise these issues again which presents an opportunity to Read More

This text is revised version of earlier presented by Ukraine document WG-EMM-16/56. Taking into account the current state of krill fishery in Area 48 and other important factors, Ukraine proposes to upgrade the Conservation Measure 51-07 in order to redistribute the trigger level of catch in 620 000 tonnes between Subareas in Area 48 in a new percentage limits.

Updated assessment of the risks of status quo krill fishing and proposed revisions to Conservation Measure 51-07 Delegation of the USA
Abstract:
We used an ecosystem model to assess the risks of 1) the most recent distribution of krill catches in Subareas 48.1-48.3 and 2) current proposals to increase the catch limit in Subarea 48.1. Our results show that the concentration of fishing effort since 2009 increases the risks that predator populations will be depleted and unable to recover. These risks vary among predators and SSMUs and Read More

Precautionary management of the Antarctic krill fishery at small spatial scales in the context of regional climate variability: is no data the same as no impact? Delegation of the United Kingdom
Abstract:
In this paper, we highlight how environmental variability has led to reduced penguin breeding performance, and increased penguin mortality following starvation, such that localised harvesting by the krill fishery at specific times or in particular areas might not be considered to be rational management. However, we also note that the current network of ecosystem monitoring sites currently Read More

ASOC strongly supports the recommendation of WG-EMM-16 that Conservation Measure 51-07 should be retained while alternative strategies and feedback management (FBM) are under evaluation. Discussions at WG-EMM-16 provided further evidence that concentrating krill fishing operations in areas being used by land-based predators puts predators at risk from localized depletion. Consequently, ASOC Read More

Antarctic krill and salps are major macroplankton contributors to Southern Ocean food webs and biogeochemical cycles. Sustainably managing the fishery for Antarctic krill against a backdrop of rapid regional climate change requires information on distribution and changes over time. Many data have been collected on the abundance of the two taxa from net sampling surveys since 1926, but they are Read More
