SG-ASAM-16

This paper is intended to provide a generalised example of a procedure for krill density estimation, based on a worked example from the Balleny Islands (WG-EMM-15/17).  Explicitly, this paper is not the CCAMLR krill density estimation procedure, but has been written as a discussion document for the 2016 SG-ASAM meeting.

The original calculation of B₀ arising from the CCAMLR-2000 survey was undertaken at the B₀ workshop held in La Jolla, USA, in May 2000 (SC-CAMLR-XIX, Annex 4, Appendix G).

A number of changes in assessing krill target strength (TS) and identifying acoustic targets have been introduced via both CCAMLR WG-EMM papers (e.g. Demer et al. 2007) and Read More

In 2010, CCAMLR tasked the Subgroup on Acoustic Survey and Analysis Methods (SG-ASAM) to recalculate the catch limit for Antarctic krill in the Scotia Sea based on updated acoustic algorithms developed since the first calculation in 2000. Subsequent to the 2010 SG-ASAM, code used to obtain biomass (B₀; tonnes) estimates was compiled and provided to the Secretariat for Read More

Raw and calibrated NASC from repeat acoustic transects sampled by commercial fishing vessels is one approach to collecting data to inform within season feedback management schemes. However, a lack of sufficient data exists from which to examine its efficacy. In addition to the time/monetary commitment by fishing nations to collect such data, a time series of data, like that collected by the U. Read More
