Accommodation: Roy Cove self-catering, ART House Hummock Island Participants: Dr Paul Brickle (Co-PI) Dr Paul Brewin (Co-PI) Steve Cartwright (Dive Officer / Coxswain) Joost Pompert (Scientist / Surveyor) Sacha Cleminson (Scientist / Surveyor) 4th – 8th February, N.B. flew out from Fox Bay. Amy Guest (PhD Student / Surveyor / Logistics) Sally Poncet (Antarctic Research Trust) Ken Passfield (Antarctic Research Trust) Background Hummock Island lies to the west of West Falkland (Figure 1). Like on other islands in the Falklands, Hummock Island´s rocky surface is covered by peat soil. Decades of grazing on the island has led to de- vegetation of about one third of the 303 ha and subsequent substantial erosion. Large areas were replaced by black ground indicating the extension and distribution of exposed peat soil. The Antarctic Research Trust (ART) is currently re-vegetating the island by tussac planting campaigns. Tussac roots and above ground blade structures will stabilise the peat soil and, moreover, will prove very efficient in storage of atmospheric carbon. -

Many species are likely to have co-evolved with soft-bodied zooplankton groups such as salps 20 and medusae, using them as substrate, for food, shelter or reproduction. Compared to other pelagic 21 groups, such as fish, euphausiids and soft-bodied zooplankton, hyperiid amphipods are poorly studied 22 especially in terms of their distribution and ecology. Hyperiids of the genus Themisto, comprising seven 23 distinct species, are key players in temperate and cold-water pelagic ecosystems where they reach 24 enormous levels of biomass. In these areas, they are important components of marine food webs, and 25 they are major prey for many commercially important fish and squid stocks. In northern parts of the 26 Southern Ocean, Themisto are so prevalent that they are considered to take on the role that Antarctic 1 27 krill play further south. -

The Role of Fish As Predators of Krill (Euphausia Superba) and Other Pelagic Resources in the Southern Ocean

Abstract Krill forms an important part of the diet of many Antarctic fish species. An understanding of the role of fish as krill predators in the Southern Ocean is critical to understanding how changes in fish abundance, such as through fishing or environmental change, are likely to impact on the food webs in the region. First attempts to estimate the krill and pelagic food consumption by Antarctic demersal fish in the low Antarctic were made in the late 1970s/ early 1980s. Those estimates were constrained by a paucity of biomass estimates and the mostly qualitative nature of food studies. -

During “Huinay Fiordos”-expeditions between 2005 and 2014 benthic Decapoda (Crustacea: Malacostraca) were collected down to 40 m depth using minimal inva- sive sampling methods. The 889 specimens were attributed to 54 species. The in- fraorder Brachyura was the most speciose with 27 species, followed by Anomura with 18 species, Caridea with 8 species and Dendrobranchiata with one species. Taxonomic examination was complemented by in-situ photo documentation and close-up pictures with extended depth of field taken from sampled individuals showing the species-specific features. Faunistic data was evaluated with location maps and sample localities are discussed according to existing literature, often resulting in the extension of known distribution ranges of various species. -

CCAMLR Science, Vol. 10 (2003): 37–51 SPECIES IDENTIFICATION AND AGE ESTIMATION FOR THE RIDGE-SCALED MACROURID (MACROURUS WHITSONI) FROM THE ROSS SEA P. Marriott National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA) Ltd Private Bag 14-901, Kilbirnie Wellington, New Zealand Email – [email protected] P.L. Horn NIWA Ltd PO Box 893, Nelson New Zealand P. McMillan NIWA Ltd Private Bag 14-901 Kilbirnie, Wellington New Zealand Abstract Samples of macrourid rattail by-catch from the toothfi sh fi shery in the Ross Sea dependency in 2002 were identifi ed by observers and returned to New Zealand for subsequent confi rmation of their identity by researchers from the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA). Two species were found, Macrourus whitsoni and M. holotrachys. A previously aged sample from 1999 was confi rmed as being solely M. whitsoni, based on otolith comparisons and the geographic source of the aged sample. Counts of translucent zones were made from baked and cross-sectioned otoliths of the ridge-scaled macrourid (M. whitsoni) sampled from the commercial longline fi shery in the Ross Sea (CCAMLR Subarea 88.1). The zones are assumed to form annually as this ageing methodology has yet to be validated for this species. Von Bertalanffy growth parameters were calculated from the readings, separately by sex. M. whitsoni appears to be a slow- growing and long-lived species, living to at least 50 years. Females grow at a faster rate, and reach a larger size, than males, but both sexes exhibit comparable maximum ages. Regression relationships were calculated, by sex, between total and snout–vent lengths, snout–vent length and weight, and total length and weight.
