Abstract

This paper presents a brief update on recent climate change-related research that is relevant to discussion and decision making by the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) and the Scientific Committee (SC-CAMLR). It complements the SCAR Antarctic Climate Change and the Environment (ACCE) Reports, initially published in 2009, and updated annually through submissions to the CEP/ATCM. It is not intended as a synthesis report, but a summary of research that is likely to be of relevance and interest to CCAMLR.
