WG-SAM has been established with a directed emphasis on developing, refining and evaluating quantitative approaches for all Antarctic marine living resources managed by CCAMLR. WG-SAM serves as a flexible technical group to address quantitative issues relevant to WG-FSA, WG-EMM and ad hoc WG-IMAF (SC-CAMLR-XXV, paragraphs 13.4 to 13.8). WG-SAM is to provide advice necessary for the work of these working groups and the Scientific Committee.
Focus topics are prioritised by the Scientific Committee, and submitted meeting papers, along with presentations and analyses conducted during the meeting, will form the basis for discussion and advice.
The terms of reference for WG-SAM are to provide advice to the Scientific Committee and its working groups on:
(i) quantitative assessment methods, statistical procedures and modelling approaches for the conservation of Antarctic marine living resources
(ii) the implementation and data requirements of such methods, procedures and approaches.
In 2017, the Scientific Committee developed a 5-year work plan (SC-CAMLR-XXXVI/BG/40) and identified topics for WG-SAM in 2020 as: development of integrated assessments at population scale in order to develop management advice consistent with Article II for fisheries with more limited data.
In 2019, the Scientific Committee agreed on six priority items for the consideration of WG-SAM-2020 (SC-CAMLR-38, paragraph 13.4). Because the WG-SAM e-group could not discuss these priorities sufficiently in 2020 due to COVID-19, the Scientific Committee considered that these priorities remained relevant for the forthcoming intersessional period as indicated in SC-CAMLR-39, paragraph 3.1 and SC CIRC 20/130. Two of these items, open-source GYM for krill assessment model and re-estimation method of catch inconsistencies between C2 and CDS, have been addressed in WG-SAM-2020 e-group discussions (SC-CAMLR-39/BG/15). Therefore, the following four items remain as Scientific Committee priorities to be discussed in WG-SAM:
(a) management strategy evaluations: refinement of harvest control rule, including F-based rules
(b) methods for calibration between vessels for tagging survival and tag detection
(c) development of coding for toolbox for research plan review
(d) toothfish conversion factors.
In addition, in 2020, the Scientific Committee noted the high priority for the revised krill fishery management procedure and the work required for the revision of Conservation Measure (CM) 51-07, updated integrated assessments and data-limited approaches for toothfish (SC-CAMLR-39, paragraph 3.1).

One of the main priorities for the Scientific Committee this year is to provide the Commission with advice on the krill fishery management taking into consideration the scheduled review of CM 51-07. The joint discussion during WG-SAM-2020, and WG-EMM-2020 e-groups validated the use of Grym (generalised R yield model) for krill stock assessment.
In 2021, WG-SAM has been tasked to agree on parameterisation for the application of Grym at the scale of Subareas 48.1, 48.2, 48.3 and 48.4. The model parametrisation will focus on Subarea 48.1, which will be used as a template for other subareas in Area 48 as it has all of the component information to provide advice using a data-limited approach.
Discussions regarding parameter values undertaken in an e-group will be summarised and presented to the meeting. Further discussions regarding the configuration of the Grym(e.g. recruitment model) will be held to determine whether the current configuration (‘base case’) may be used to provide advice.

If papers are submitted on important new developments impacting the provision of management advice for the toothfish fishery, the Working Group will review these papers.

In 2020, the Scientific Committee faced difficulty for determining a catch limit in divisions where directed fishing did not occur in the past two years. The trend analysis was run (SC-CAMLR-39, Table 5) and the Commission agreed to use the lower value of catch limits whether it was the value calculated using the trend analysis or the value adopted by the Commission for 2019/20 (CCAMLR-39, paragraph 5.38). It also noted that this practice should not become a precedent.
The trend analysis procedure must be reviewed to clarify this issue.

WG-FSA-2019 discussed the robustness of the CCAMLR decision rule to potential climate change induced variation in toothfish productivity and highlighted that this sensitivity should be considered by the Scientific Committee and its working groups (WG-FSA-2019, paragraph 3.14). The Scientific Committee endorsed the recommendation of WG-FSA to task WG-SAM with investigating potential refinements of the CCAMLR decision rules to increase their robustness in specific circumstances, such as using target and limit exploitation rates, through management strategy evaluations (SC-CAMLR-38, paragraph 3.67).

The Scientific Committee noted the results of the tagging study (WG-FSA-2019, paragraphs 4.21 to 4.25) which highlighted the variable nature of tagging operations across the fishing fleet. Given the importance of tagging data in toothfish stock assessments, it remains a priority to keep developing metrics for tagging program performances to enable vessels comparison, provide advice in tagging practices for vessels with poorer performance and account for this variation in stock assessment models.

In 2019, the Scientific Committee recommended the Secretariat conduct a survey similar to that of the tagging survey on how conversion factors are calculated and applied for each vessel, and provide the results of this survey to WG-SAM (SC-CAMLR-38, paragraph 4.2). Analysis demonstrating the importance of conversion factor estimation on stock assessment models would be welcomed.

The Scientific Committee noted the discussion at WG-FSA (WG-FSA-2019, paragraph 4.34), regarding the use of a standard map projection as specified within the CCAMLR GIS, or providing the projection used in the map. Additionally, the Scientific Committee recommended that maps within papers provide references for data layers used (e.g. bathymetry). This would allow the reproducibility and analysis of maps/research design within working groups, should that be required (SC-CAMLR-38, paragraph 4.23).

The Scientific Committee discussed that there are many tools used by various Members whilst developing research plans, and the development of a ‘tool box’ which contains analytical tools for use by all Members in the development of research plans (SC-CAMLR-38, paragraph 4.17). These tools may include:
(i) mapping tools or tutorials
(ii) scripts for statistical power analysis with detailed tutorials adapted to the question asked and the type of data available
(iii) scripts for the random selection of stations
(iv) indications on the definition and delimitation of sampling strata
(v) diagnostic methods for sea-ice conditions
(vi) scripts for comparative analysis of vessel tagging performance (but see agenda item 5.1).

Ongoing proposal describes a research plan that was accepted with a specified time period and has not reached the end of that period. Subsequent proposals for research that follow on from other research in an area are not ‘ongoing’ proposals for the purposes of the review process but new proposals. See also Annex table ‘review process and timetable according to CCAMLR-38, paragraph 5.64’ for details.
