Tug‐of‐war for the antarctic krill
Ocean Development & International Law, 1980Abstract A polarization has emerged concerning Antarctic krill. Those who see the krill as an abundant food source are opposed by those who view the expanding krill fishery as a threat to the Antarctic ecosystem. The author discusses the biological basis of expected krill harvests, examines the arguments concerning conservation and preservation, and ...

Morphological and biochemical differentiation in Antarctic krill
Journal of Marine Systems, 2009Abstract During the February 1981 cruise FIBEX MD-25 between 30–50°E and 61–64°S, hydrography showed the presence of two gyres, confirmed by the geostrophic circulation relative to 1000 m from Levitus climatology, at the borders of these gyres concentrations of highly morphologically differentiated krill were found.

Scales of Interaction Between Antarctic Krill and the Environment
1988A conceptual framework to allow a constructive approach to the analysis of the Antarctic marine ecosystem taking into account the variability of the system was developed. The temporal and spatial scale relationships of biotic and abiotic processes were found to be important in the investigation of ecosystem structure.

Krill and the Antarctic : finding the balance
2009The Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) has a mandate to manage Southern Ocean resources using an ecosystem approach. In accordance with this, ecosystem models of the South Orkneys/South Georgia region (FAO Subareas 48.2 and 48.3, respectively) were constructed using the modelling software Ecopath with Ecosim ...

Persistent Pollutants in Arctic and Antarctic Krill and in Commercial Krill Oil
2018Krill are considered key-species of marine ecosystems of the Polar Regions, being main food source for fish, marine mammals and birds in the Southern Ocean and in Arctic seawaters. Through ingestion, persistent organic pollutants accumulated in their body could be transferred to their predators due to biomagnification process and may cause effects in ...

Krill Consumption by Antarctic Notothenioid Fish
1985The feeding ecology and the food intake of 4 species of channichthyid fishes (Champsocephalus gunnari, Chaenocephalus aceratus, Pseudochaenichthys georgianus, Chionodraco rastrospinosus) and 3 species of nototheniids (Notothenia rossii marmorata, N. gibberifrons, N. larseni) were studied in western Antarctic waters and off South Georgia.
