A research plan for Subarea 88.3 was commenced by Korea in 2016 and New Zealand joined the proposal in 2017. The joint research proposal was for 3 years covering the period 2017/18, 2018/19 and 2019/20. It was designed to build on Korea’s previous research by continuing to focus on research blocks where tagged fish have previously been released on the slope, while also prospecting two of the Read More

The time series of relative abundance and age structure from the Ross Sea shelf survey is an important input to the Ross Sea stock assessment. The annual survey has been conducted since 2012, with a revised proposal presented in 2017 for five years (2018–2022). The objectives of the survey included monitoring the abundance and age structure of sub-adult (≤ 110 cm TL) toothfish in the south of Read More

Natural mortality (M) is a key parameter in fisheries stock assessments, relating directly to the productivity of a stock, stock status, and estimated precautionary yields. In the Ross Sea region stock assessment for Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni), M is assumed to be 0.13 y^-1 and constant across age and sex.

In 2018, the independent Read More

Exploratory fishing for toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) in East Antarctica (Divisions 58.4.1 and 58.4.2) began in 2003. Robust stock assessments and catch limits according to CCAMLR decision rules remain to be determined for these Divisions. WG-FSA-16/29 outlined the first multi-member toothfish exploratory fishery research plan up to 2017/18 for East Antarctica, which the Read More

The Russian Federation proposes, in accordance with Measure 21-01, on establishment   a new craboid fishery using pots in Subareas 88.2 (SSRU 882 H, C, D, E, F) and 88.3 (SSRU 88.3 B, C, D) in the 2019/20 season. The initiating a new craboid fishery in Subareas 88.2 and 88.3 would be consistent with  CCAMLR’s regulatory framework.

The issues of longlines geo-referencing during the exploratory fisheries of the toothfish in the Convention Area are discussed. Cases of differences in the coordinates of settings and haulings are considered. The estimation of the maximum possible variation of the coordinates in the depths range of 550-3000 m was performed.

Mackerel icefish (Champsocephalus gunnari) – one of the most common and widespread species of Antarctic fish. Ukraine proposes survey of Champsocephalus gunnari at previously scheduled stations (trawlings) points in the statistical Subarea 48.2. The main objective of the research is to determine the distribution and abundance of mackerel icefish in Subarea 48.2.

Catch rates or catch per unit of effort (CPUE) are used for data-poor exploratory fisheries without integrated assessments in the CPUE by seabed area method to estimate stock biomass in the interim of collecting sufficient tag recaptures. Here, we address the two questions: (1) which unit of effort should be used for catch rates in mixed longline fisheries, and (2) how do different parameters Read More
