Driving forces of Antarctic krill abundance. [PDF]
Antarctic krill, crucial to the Southern Ocean ecosystem and a vital fisheries resource, is endangered by climate change. Identifying drivers of krill biomass is therefore essential for determining catch limits and designating protection zones. We present a modeling approach to pinpointing effects of sea surface temperature, ice cover, chlorophyll ...

Effects of Hot-Air Drying Temperatures on Quality and Volatile Flavor Components of Cooked Antarctic krill (<i>Euphausia superba</i>). [PDF]
Hot-air drying is a key step for Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) onboard processing; however, few studies have explored the effects of different drying temperatures on the quality and flavor alternations of Antarctic krill.

Setting a precautionary catch limit for Antarctic krill [PDF]
A revised precautionary catch limit for Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) in the Scotia Sea of 4 million tons was recently adopted by the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR).

Effects of Different Levels of Antarctic Krill Oil on the Ovarian Development of Macrobrachium rosenbergii. [PDF]
Antarctic krill oil has been proven to be able to promote the ovarian development of crustaceans, but its optimal application dose and potential regulatory mechanism in Macrobrachium rosenbergii are still unclear.

Effects of Konjac Glucomannan on Functional and Structural Properties of Antarctic Krill Surimi Gel [PDF]
Antarctic krill surimi is a novel type of gel-based food that has attracted increasing attention. However, pure Antarctic krill surimi generally exhibits poor gel-forming properties.

Scientific echosounder data provide a predator's view of Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba). [PDF]
Raw acoustic data were collected in East Antarctica from the RSV Aurora Australis during two surveys: the Krill Availability, Community Trophodynamics and AMISOR Surveys (KACTAS) and the Krill Acoustics and Oceanography Survey (KAOS) in the East ...

Variations of the metabolome in the digestive system of Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, between summer and autumn. [PDF]
Rapid climate change threatens the relatively pristine environment of the Southern Ocean. The effects on biogeochemical cycles and their subsequent consequences for the organisms in this area are of significant interest.

Antarctic krill sequester similar amounts of carbon to key coastal blue carbon habitats. [PDF]
The carbon sequestration potential of open-ocean pelagic ecosystems is vastly under-reported compared to coastal vegetation ‘blue carbon’ systems. Here we show that just a single pelagic harvested species, Antarctic krill, sequesters a similar amount of ...

Rich microbial and depolymerising diversity in Antarctic krill gut. [PDF]
With almost a quadrillion individuals, the Antarctic krill processes five million tons of organic carbon every day during austral summer. This high carbon flux requires a broad range of hydrolytic enzymes to decompose the diverse food-derived biopolymers.
