The study examined how the foraging activity, foraging efficiency and the pup provisioning of a top marine predator, the Antarctic fur seal (Arctocephalus gazella), were affected by inter-annual variability in oceanographic conditions and prey availability in the Antarctic Polar Frontal Zone (APFZ), in February 1998, 1999 and 2000. It formed part of a larger multidisciplinary study examining predator-prey relationships in relation to oceanographic features between Antarctic fur seals, king penguins (Aptenodytes patagonicus) and their mesopelagic, fish prey, myctophids.
