Résumé
The Convention for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) is currently considering plausible models of the Southern Ocean ecosystem within the Working Group on Ecosystem Monitoring and Management (WG-EMM). The icefish, Champsocephalus gunnari, is one of the key components in the subantarctic marine ecosystem in the Scotia Sea and northern Kerguelen Plateau areas, as well as supporting commercial fisheries. Data on the species’ distribution, biology, ecological interactions and susceptibility to environmental change are summarised for use in ecological modelling work.
