چکیده

Abstract Target strength model inputs including morphometry, material properties, lipid composition, and in situ orientations were measured for sub-Arctic krill (Euphausia pacifica, Thysanoessa spinifera, T. inermis, raschii) the eastern Bering Sea (EBS, 2016) Gulf of Alaska (GOA, 2017). Inter-species -regional animal lengths significantly different (F1,680 = 114.10, p < 0.01), while shape was consistent all species measured. The polar phosphatidycholine dominant lipid, comprising 86 ± 16% (mean SD) 56 22% total mass GOA EBS krill, respectively. Krill density contrasts varied by region rather than with or local chla fluorescence. Mean orientation 1 31°, 25% observed within ±5° broadside incidence. Modelled target sensitivity frequency independent variations properties but primarily sensitive to morphometry at lower (38 kHz) higher (200 frequencies, Measured variability corresponded an order magnitude difference acoustic estimates biomass 120 kHz. These results provide important constraints scattering models ecologically species.

Acoustic estimation of krill abundance utilizing volume scattering measurements

More than two decades of intensive ecological research in the Antarctic have refined the oversimplistic view of "the Antarctic ecosystem" towards identification and investigation of a number of different subsystems. Within the pack-ice zone of the Weddell Sea (Atlantic sector of the Antarctic Ocean), a summer pelagic system breaks up into ice-bound and deep-living systems in winter. Furthermore...
