Chilean Antarctic krill fishery (2011-2016)

Chilean Antarctic krill fishery (2011-2016)

ABSTRACT: Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba) is a key resource in the Antarctic region, as it is the primary food source for fish, whales, seals, flying birds, penguins and cephalopods. The high concentrations of the species and its possible uses -food for human and animal consumption and in the pr...
