    Résumé

    A research proposal to continue the southern Ross Sea subadult toothfish survey is presented. The survey will focus on estimating relative abundance in the core strata (A, B, C) in SSRUs 88.1 J and 88.1L, and will conduct exploratory sets in a newly defined stratum I in southern SSRU 88.1 M. Survey timing and methods will remain the same as in previous years, although the number of sets is proposed to be reduced by 5 sets to a total of 60 sets.
