Using a multidisciplinary ecosystem approach to the study of cetaceans in the Southern Ocean Paper SC/49/SH5 submitted to the Scientific Committee, International Whaling Commission IWC49, September 1997, 1997 (Ref: 9314)
Category 3: Conference paper

A line transect survey of the waters off East Antarctica (80°E-150°E; CCAMLR Division 58.4.1; IWC Areas IV &V) was conducted during January to March 1996 on the 5,000t icebreaker RV Aurora Australis. Cruise determining programs were a hydroacoustic survey to estimate Antarctic krill…

An estimate of abundance for humpback whales from the Australian Southern Ocean Pelagic Monitoring Program for Antarctic Area IV Paper SC/50/CAWS16 submitted to the Scientific Committee, International Whaling Commission IWC 50, June 1998, 1998 (Ref: 9313)
Category 3: Conference paper

Data from the 1995/96 pelagic monitoring survey by Aurora Australis are used to provide a sightings estimate of abundance of humpback whales south of 60*S in Area IV of 900 with a CV of 0.46. This estimate is notably lower than that of 3300 for an equivalent area from the 1988/89 IWC/IDCR survey.

Preliminary results of a Southern Ocean cetacean sightings survey in Areas IV and V Paper SC/48/SH22 submitted to the Scientific Committee, International Whaling Commission IWC 48, May 1996, 1996 (Ref: 9312)
Category 3: Conference paper

During the austral summer 1995/95 a cetacean sightings line transect survey was conducted on a platform of opportunity provided by Australian National Antarctic Research Expeditions krill hydroacoustic and oceanography survey of CCAMLR Division 58.4 (parts of IWC Area IV & V).

Ecological research and baleen whale management: a case study from the Southern Ocean Sanctuary Paper SC/52/E9 submitted to the Scientific Committee, International Whaling Commission IWC 52, June 2000, 2000 (Ref: 9310)
Category 3: Conference paper

Abstract … Current ecological theory and practice, in parallel with the changing emphasis in international conservation and management organisations towards an ecosystem approach, require us to:

Antarctic bryophytesand global climate change: Seasonal patterns in tolerance of desiccation for three moss species from the Windmill Islands, East Antarctica. Com Bio 2000. Australian Society of Plant Physiologists Annual Meeting. Published Abstracts. Wellington, New Zealand., December 11-14, 2000., 2000 (Ref: 10168)
Category 3: Verbal presentation

Bryophytes are sensitive indicators of environmental change and with climate change being expected to occur first at high latitudes, Antarctic bryophytes are ideal study systems for the detection of climate change effects.
