Acoustic estimates of the densities of Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, in areas around South Georgia (SG) and Elephant Island (EI) were compared for seven austral summers between 1981 and 1997. Estimated densities of krill at SG were most often lower than at EI, although this may simply have bee...
