Yoda (Japan) Resumen: We compared physical parameters (temperature, salinity, density and geostrophic current) in order to investigate differences of oceanographic structures in the same area and summer season between the 1981 FIBEX survey and 2000 CCAMLR survey in the Scotia Sea, Antarctica. As a result, the distribution range of the cold Antarctic Surface Water less than 0°C in the 1981 FIBEX survey is clearly Read More Presentado por: Admin Admin (Secretaría de la CCRVMA) Solicitar acceso a documento de reunión

This paper describes temporal changes in foraging range throughout the breeding season of Adélie penguins nesting at Béchervaise Island on the Mawson coast of Eastern Antarctica. A decade’s worth of satellite tracking data was loaded into geographical information systems (GIS) software to produce maps of where the penguins travel to feed during each of the incubation, guard, crèche and pre- Read More Presentado por: Admin Admin (Secretaría de la CCRVMA) Solicitar acceso a documento de reunión

Lidvanov, A.V. Zimin, K.E. Shulgovsky (Russia) Resumen: Three basic length groupings of krill were identified with the clustering analysis on the basis of the data of two complex surveys carried out in the western Atlantic sector of Antarctic in summer 1984 and 1988. The large-length grouping is biotopically associated with the waters of the southern branch of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC).

Southwell (Australia) Resumen: There is a large body of existing count data in the literature for penguins at their breeding sites in Antarctica and the sub-Antarctic islands. These data have been summarised into several compilation documents and their accuracy assessed therein on a site-by-site basis.

WG-EMM-04/61 Mostrar menos información	Approaches to the simplification of the summary and presentation of CEMP data K. Reid (United Kingdom) and G. Watters (USA) Resumen: The current approach to providing advice on the status of the krill-centric ecosystem relies on the evaluation of statistical anomalies in the CEMP database. A new approach based on the ordination of variables according to functional groupings is suggested. This approach uses the methodology developed within WG EMM to produce composite standardised indices (CSIs) from matrices containing Read More Presentado por: Admin Admin (Secretaría de la CCRVMA) Solicitar acceso a documento de reunión

Reid (United Kingdom) Resumen: The methods and presentation of CEMP parameters A1, A5 and A7 where evaluated using simulated time-series data. The effects of sampling timing and intensity during five-day periods for measures of arrival and fledging mass suggested that situations where sampling is distributed unevenly around the peak arrival/fledging date may introduce substantial bias in CEMP parameters A1and A7.

Ainley (USA) Resumen: The Ross Sea Shelf Ecosystem (RSShelfE) offers the last chance to understand ecological processes in a system where both top-down and bottom-up forcing are still intact. Elsewhere in Earth’s oceans the systems used for understanding ecological processes and fishery effects all have lacked significant, natural top-down forcing for such a long time that it is a concept rarely considered by Read More Presentado por: Admin Admin (Secretaría de la CCRVMA) Solicitar acceso a documento de reunión

Trathan (United Kingdom), A. Constable (Australia) Resumen: An ecosystem approach for the management of human activities in the Southern Ocean is enshrined in the principles of the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR). The implementation of such an approach requires an understanding of the wider dynamics of the ecosystem, which is best achieved through the development of ecosystem models.

WG-EMM-04/24 Mostrar menos información	A possible framework in which to consider plausible models of the Antarctic marine ecosystem for evaluating krill management procedures A. Constable (Australia) Resumen: CCAMLR requires an assessment method for recommending a subdivision of the krill catch limit in Area 48 that will be highly likely to achieve the objectives of the convention despite the uncertainties in knowledge. This will be part of the management procedure governing the krill fishery. The agreed workplan for developing a management procedure includes the evaluation of candidate management Read More Presentado por: Admin Admin (Secretaría de la CCRVMA) Solicitar acceso a documento de reunión
