This document is intended to address several issues related to the development of recruitment indices for Antarctic krill from net-tow data. We address three primary issues: 1) the view that length-frequency data collected by long-term monitoring programs that have used nets other than the RMT-8 cannot be used to parameterize Grym simulations, 2) that Read More

Proportional recruitment is a concept that summarizes the variability of new individuals entering a population over time. Two parameters characterizing proportional recruitment, the mean and standard deviation of the interannual proportion of juveniles in the population, are important inputs to the Generalised Yield Model in R (GRYM). The GRYM is a simulation framework that defines Read More

This paper proposes a continuation of the Ross Sea shelf survey (RSSS) for three years from 2023–2025. The primary objective (1) of the survey is to monitor Antarctic toothfish recruitment in the southern Ross Sea. This would be a continuation of the annual time series of research surveys carried out since 2012 using a random stratified design. Continuing the time series is Read More

This is the second year continuation of the on-going three-year plan from 2021/22 to 2023/24. There is no significant change from the endorsed proposal (WG-FSA-2021/38).

An analysis of the Sea Ice Concentration (SIC), Sea Surface Temperature (SST) and winds in Research Blocks (RBs) 48.6_5 and 48.6_4 is presented. The SIC in RB5 between mid Feb. and end Mar. 2022 were the lowest for the 2019-2022 period. RB4 was free of ice (SIC 0%) in Jan. and Feb. 2022.

Exploratory fishing for Antarctic toothfish (Dissostichus mawsoni) in East Antarctica (Divisions 58.4.1 and 58.4.2) began in 2003. While preliminary integrated stock assessments have been developed for these Divisions, robust estimates of stock biomass and precautionary catch limits according to CCAMLR decision rules remain to be determined.

Knowledge of recruitment dynamics, and in particular trends in recruitment and recruitment variability, are key inputs for integrated assessments of fish stocks. A quantitative longline survey monitoring the recruitment of Antarctic toothfish (Dissotichus mawsoni) in the southern Ross Sea was started in 2012. The survey was expanded in 2016 to monitor trends and biological Read More

Accounting for tag loss rate is an important step in reducing bias in tag-based stock size estimates in CASAL. Here, we used 10,968 records of double-tagged Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) released in Subarea 48.3 between 2004 and 2020, that were recaptured with at least one tag, to estimate tag loss rates over time at liberty. We explored Read More

This paper compares the influence of otolith selection for age reading, from observer collected samples, on the estimation of the biological productivity parameters, maturity at age and expected length at age, for Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) in Subarea 48.3 between 2011 and 2020.

The scientific research fishing was conducted by the Greenstar (KOR) and Marigolds (UKR) in in Subarea 88.3 following the survey design (WG-FSA-2021/34).

The GrYM model is now ready for used in the new krill management approach. However, some of the important model input parameters were still to be determined. The present paper introduced briefly the status of the model parameter developments to contribute to the discussion at WG-SAM-2022.

The review of the available gear selectivity studies in the krill fishery in context of standard ICES methods was undertaken.  Some methodical aspects of selectivity estimates were considered.  According to the authors, currently, the data sets used to estimate the gear selectivity does not adequately describe the krill fishing process.
