TO ALL MEMBERS OF THE COMMISSION AND THE SCIENTIFIC COMMITTEE
Members are advised that the Alfred Wegener Institute for Polar and Marine Research has deployed a sub-surface mooring south of Elephant Island in CCAMLR statistical Subarea 48.1. The mooring with passive acoustic recorders was deployed in a water depth of 319 m to monitor the presence of marine mammals also at times when visual observations are not possible. An upward looking Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) serves to monitor the presence of krill.
The mooring is located near 61°00.88'S, 55°58.53'W, and the sub-surface buoy is approximately 120 m below the surface.
Members should avoid fishing in depths below 110 m in the vicinity of the mooring.
