Climate change and polar marine invertebrates: life-history responses in a warmer, high CO2 world. Journal of Experimental Biology, 2024 (Ref: 17207)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Polar marine invertebrates serve as bellwethers for species vulnerabilities in the face of changing climate at high latitudes of the Earth. Ocean acidification, warming/heatwaves, freshening, sea ice … retreat and productivity change are challenges for polar species.

Updated observations relevant to the Scientific Committee's 3rd decadal review of the Southern Ocean Sanctuary (SOS) IWC Scientific Committee Meeting (SC69A), Bled, Slovenia, 24 April - 6 May 2023, 2023 (Ref: 16920)
Category 2: International meeting papers

Introduction: This document updates the research bibliography of SC/66b/SAN01 presented in 2016. The Southern Ocean Sanctuary (SOS) was established by the Commission in 1994. The area covered by the SOS in combination with the complementary Indian Ocean Sanctuary (IOS) is shown in Figure 1.

Demography of an ice-obligate mysticete in a region of rapid environmental change Royal Society Open Science, 2022 (Ref: 16696)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Antarctic minke whales (Balaenoptera bonaerensis, AMW) are an abundant, ice-dependent species susceptible to rapid climatic changes occurring in parts of the Antarctic. Here, we used remote biopsy samples and estimates of length derived from unoccupied aircraft system (UAS)…

Estimating relative abundance of whales from historical Antarctic whaling records. Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 2014 (Ref: 15167)
Authors:
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Catch per unit effort (CPUE) is often the only data available from historical fisheries for inferring distribution and abundance of exploited populations. CPUE underestimates variations in relative abundance when gross effort data are only measured in total operating days.

Uncommon or cryptic? Challenges in estimating leopard seal abundance by conventional but state-of-the-art methods Deep-Sea Research 1, 2008 (Ref: 13311)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The method traditionally used to estimate pack-ice seal abundance employs sighting surveys from ships or aircraft to … estimate the number of seals hauled out on the ice, combined with studies of haul-out behaviour to estimate the proportion … of time spent on the ice.

Taking account of dependent species in Management of the Southern Ocean krill fishery: estimating crabeater seal abundance off east Antarctica Journal of Applied Ecology, 2008 (Ref: 13310)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

1. The crabeater seal … Lobodon carcinophaga … is considered to be a key species in the krill-based foodweb … of the Southern Ocean. Reliable estimates of the abundance of this species are necessary to … allow the development of multispecies, predator…

Assessing the toxic effects of dissolved copper on the Antarctic macroalga Desmarestia menziesii using chlorophyll fluorescence imaging in ecotoxicological tests Toxicological & Environmental Chemistry, 2007 (Ref: 13102)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

Chlorophyll fluorescence was used to measure changes in the maximum fluorescence yield (F0m) and effective quantum yield (F/F0m ) of Antarctic macroalgae in response to dissolved copper.

Spectral width of SuperDARN echoes: measurement, use and physical interpretation Annales Geophysicae, 2006 (Ref: 12884)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

The Doppler velocity and spectral width are two … important parameters derived from coherent scatter radar … systems. The Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (Super- … DARN)…

Estimation of Detection Probability in Aerial Surveys of Antarctic Pack-Ice Seals. Journal of Agricultural, Biological and Environmental Statistics, 2007 (Ref: 12852)
Category 1: Peer-reviewed literature

We use line transect detection functions together with generalized linear and additive … models to estimate detection probability when detection on the line ("g(O)") may … not be certain.
