  • Sensitivity Analysis Identifies High Influence Sites for Estimates of Penguin Krill Consumption on the Antarctic Peninsula
    Antarctic Science 25(1), 19–23 (2013) & Antarctic Science Ltd 2012 doi:10.1017/S0954102012000600 Sensitivity analysis identifies high influence sites for estimates of penguin krill consumption on the Antarctic Peninsula HEATHER J. LYNCH1, NORMAN RATCLIFFE2, JENNIFER PASSMORE2, EMMA FOSTER2 and PHILIP N. TRATHAN2 1Ecology & Evolution Department, 640 Life Sciences Building, Stony Brook University, Stony Brook, NY 11794, USA 2British Antarctic Survey, NERC, High Cross, Madingley Road, Cambridge CB3 0ET, UK [email protected] Abstract: Krill consumption by natural predators represents a critical link between surveys and models of standing krill biomass and the design of a sustainable krill fishery for the Scotia Sea. Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) is a significant component of diet for penguins breeding in this region and, consequently, uncertainties regarding penguin population abundances contribute to uncertainties in krill predation estimates. We use a comprehensive database of Antarctic penguin abundances to identify 14 breeding colonies that contribute most significantly to uncertainty regarding the total number of pygoscelid penguins breeding in this region. We find that a high quality survey of Zavodovski Island alone would decrease uncertainty in total population by 24.8%, whereas high quality surveys of all 14 ‘‘high-influence’’ locations would decrease uncertainty by almost 72%. Updated population estimates at these sites should be considered top priority for future fieldwork in the region. Our results are based on a robust

  • Harmony Point, Nelson Island, South Shetland Islands
    Measure 2 (2005) Annex G Management Plan for Antarctic Specially Protected Area No. 133 HARMONY POINT, NELSON ISLAND, SOUTH SHETLAND ISLANDS 1. Description of Values to be Protected This Area (62° 18’ S; 59° 14’ W) was originally designated as Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) No. 14 in Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meeting (ATCM) Recommendation XIII-8 after a proposal by Argentina and Chile, because of its diverse bird community and extensive and varied terrestrial vegetation cover. During the XXI Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meeting (Christchurch, 1997), a revised Management Plan was adopted for the Area, following the format established by Annex V to the Madrid Protocol and according to Measure 3 (1997). During the XXV Antarctic Treaty Consultative Meeting (Warsaw, 2002) and once the Annex entered into force, the Site of Special Scientific Interest No. 14 became, by virtue of Measure 1 (2002), Antarctic Specially Protected Area No. 133. The values to be protected in the Area are related to the composition and biological diversity of the site. The Area is an excellent example of the maritime Antarctic communities of birds and land ecosystems present in the South Shetland Islands, allowing to carry out long term research programs without damage or harmful interference. Ice-free land supports large breeding colonies of 12 seabird species, among which we find one of the largest single colonies of chinstrap penguin (Pygoscelis antarctica) of Antarctica. The Area supports a large giant petrel colony (Macronectes giganteus) colony, a species which is highly sensitive to any kind of human disturbance and is decreasing in many sites in Antarctica.
