WG-FSA-07/13 Mostrar menos información	Autoliners and seabird by-catch: do line setters increase the sink rate of integrated weight longlines? G. Robertson (Australia), J. Williamson, M. McNeill (New Zealand), S. Candy (Australia) and N. Smith (New Zealand) Resumen: Line setters are used with integrated weight (50 g/m lead core, IW) by some autoline vessels in the Kerguelen and Crozet Islands Patagonian toothfish fisheries to deter seabirds, ostensibly by expediting gear sink rates. A trial was conducted in the Ross Sea in 2007 to determine the effectiveness of line setters in increasing sink rates of IW longlines.

WG-FSA-07/14 Mostrar menos información	A new fishing gear in the Chilean Patagonian toothfish fishery to minimise interactions with toothed whales with associated benefits to seabird conservation C.A. Moreno, R. Castro, L.J. Mujica and P. Reyes (Chile) Resumen: We describe a new fishing technique, called the Chilean system, adapted from an artisan fishery for Patagonian Toothfish. The artisan system was modified to include a net sleeve that is placed on secondary vertical lines, which has practically eliminated depredation by killer whales and sperm whales.

WG-FSA-07/15 Mostrar menos información	Line weights of constant mass (and sink rates) for Spanish-rig Patagonian toothfish longline vessels G. Robertson (Australia), C.A. Moreno, E. Gutiérrez (Chile), S.G. Candy (Australia), E.F. Melvin (USA) and J.P. Seco Pon (Argentina) Resumen: CCAMLR Conservation Measure 25-02 requires Spanish system longline vessels attach 8.5 kg weights at 40 m intervals on longlines to minimise interactions with seabirds. The weights are collections of rocks enclosed in netting bags. The netting bags abrade on the seabed, rocks are lost and weights become progressively lighter, requiring ongoing weighing and repair.

WG-FSA-07/30 Mostrar menos información	Proposal for further trials aimed at reducing Macrourus spp. by catch on autoliners targeting D. eleginoides with longlines around South Georgia Delegation of the United Kingdom Resumen: IW longlines are effective in reducing the bycatch of birds in toothfish fisheries, but by putting the line closer to the seabed they increase the bycatch of macrourids and rajids. Experiments reported elsewhere demonstrate that some of this effect can be mitigated by the use of fish rather than squid bait, but even then autolines continue to catch more macrourid bycatch than Spanish systems.

This paper should be read in conjunction with the observer’s report of that cruise (Basson 2006).

The skate catch rate was 11% lower on the IW gear compared to unweighted gear. Location, month Read More Presentado por: Admin Admin (Secretaría de la CCRVMA) Solicitar acceso a documento de reunión
WG-FSA-07/52 Mostrar menos información	Long-term changes in the size composition of fjord Notothenia rossii, Gobionotothen gibberifrons and Notothenia coriiceps at Potter Cove, after the 1978–1980 fishery in the area E.R. Marschoff, E.R. Barrera-Oro and N.S. Alescio (Argentina) Resumen: Fish samples collected through an overall period of 24 years at Potter Cove after the impact of the fishery in the area in 1978-80, allowed the comparison of the variations in mean annual lengths and density distributions of the commercially exploited species N. rossi and G. gibberrifrons with the ecologically similar but unexploited N. coriiceps. The sharp decline in the abundance of N. Read More Presentado por: Admin Admin (Secretaría de la CCRVMA) Solicitar acceso a documento de reunión

WG-FSA-07/55 Mostrar menos información	Spawning periods and locations of Champsocephalus gunnari in Subarea 48.3 (South Georgia and Shag Rocks): a review S. Clarke, M. Belchier and M.A. Collins Resumen: Analysis of recent commercial catch, research survey and larval data for mackerel icefish (Champsocephalus gunnari) recorded from CCAMLR Subarea 48.3 coupled with historical information indicates that they spawn inshore close to the bays and over the shelf to the northeast. There is also evidence that spawning is protracted and occurs from January through to July. The majority of commercial Read More Presentado por: Admin Admin (Secretaría de la CCRVMA) Solicitar acceso a documento de reunión

WG-FSA-07/58 Mostrar menos información	Stones in toothfish stomachs: an unusual source of geological information from closed regions of Antarctic shelf and slope N.V. Kokorin, D.S. Klucharev and M.A. Sukhoruchenkov (Russia) Resumen: The rocks from stomachs of Dissostichus mawsoni were used as a source of geological information about sea bottom. Authors suggest toothfish picks up stones from the bottom randomly, and these stones may be used for geological description of the closed areas of Antarctic shelf and slope. In this respect, Dissostichus mawsoni may be considered as a «dredge» with a wide area of sampling.
