Resumen
The annual random stratified trawl survey was undertaken in Division 58.5.2 in the vicinity of Heard Island and McDonald Islands during March/April 2023. Based on data from this survey, this paper provides a preliminary assessment for mackerel icefish (Champsocephalus gunnari) population structure, abundance and yield in Division 58.5.2 using standard CCAMLR methods (CMIX and Generalized Yield Model).
The 2023 survey showed a large 3+ cohort in the population and a high biomass. Based on the Grym implementation, catches of 714 t in the 2023/24 season and 599 t in the 2024/25 season satisfy the CCAMLR decision rules.
