Category 2: International meeting papers

In accordance with Article 6.3 of Annex V to the Protocol on Environmental Protection to the Antarctic Treaty, Australia has undertaken a five-yearly review of the management plan for Antarctic Specially Protected Area (ASPA) 164 Scullin and Murray Monoliths.

New counts of Adélie penguin populations at Scullin and Murray monoliths, Mac. Robertson Land, East Antarctica. Antarctic Science, 2013 (Ref: 15016)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Scullin and Murray monoliths are thought to hold the largest concentration of breeding seabirds in … East Antarctica. The monoliths were designated as an Antarctic Specially Protected Area (ASPA No. 164)…

An estimate of the population sizes of Black-browed (Thalassarche melanophrys) and Grey-headed (T. chrysostoma) Albatrosses breeding in the Diego Ramírez Archipelago, Chile Emu, 2007 (Ref: 13306)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The Diego Ramírez Archipelago, Chile, is the southernmost albatross breeding ground in the world and holds … globally important numbers of Black-browed (Thalassarche melanophrys) and Grey-headed (T. chrysostoma) Albatrosses. A census in the Diego Ramírez Archipelago has been attempted only once…

Effect of line shooter and mainline tension on the sink rates of pelagic longlines and implications for seabird interactions. Acquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, 2010 (Ref: 14155)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

1. The likelihood that seabirds will be hooked and drowned in longline fisheries increases when baited hooks sink slowly. Fishermen target different fishing depths by setting the mainline through a line shooter, which controls the tension (or slackness) in the line.

Line weights of constant mass (and sink rates) for Spanish-system Patagonian Toothfish longline vessels CCAMLR Science, 2008 (Ref: 13589)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

CCAMLR Conservation Measure 25-02 requires Spanish-system longline vessels to attach 8.5 kg weights at 40 m intervals on longlines to minimise interactions with seabirds. The weights typically used are collections of rocks enclosed in netting bags.

Autoliners and seabird by-catch: do line setters increase the sink rate of integrated weight longlines? CCAMLR Science, 2008 (Ref: 13588)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Line setters are used with integrated weight (IW) (50 g m–1 lead core) longlines by some autoline vessels in the Kerguelen and Crozet Islands Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) fisheries to deter seabirds, ostensibly by expediting gear sink rates.

An experimental assessment of factors affecting the sink rates of spanish-rig longlines to minimize impacts on seabirds Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, 2008 (Ref: 13304)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The Spanish system of longline fishing is used in a range of demersal and semi-pelagic fisheries … throughout the southern hemisphere and has been the source of a large number of seabird fatalities.

Exposure ages from mountain dipsticks in Mac. Robertson Land, East Antarctica, indicate little change in ice-sheet thickness since the Last Glacial Maximum Geology, 2007 (Ref: 13533)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Past changes in East Antarctic Ice Sheet (EAIS) volume are poorly known and diffi cult to … measure, yet are critical for predicting the response of the ice sheet to modern climate change. In particular, it is important to identify the sources of sea-level rise since the Last Glacial … Maximum (LGM)…
