Changes in biomass of eight species of finfish around the South Orkney Islands (Subarea 48,2) from three bottom trawl surveys
Stocks of finfish exploited around the South Orkney Islands (Subarea 48.2) suffered substantial declines from split-year 1977/78 to 1989/90. The biomass of several species of finfish has been monitored through scientific bottom trawl surveys within the 500 m isobath of the South Orkney Islands, most...
