This project investigates the impact of parasites on Antarctic krill, a crucial species in the Southern Ocean ecosystem. By employing molecular techniques and mathematical modeling, it aims to enhance understanding of krill health and inform sustainable fisheries management.
Antarctic krill, Euphausia superba, play essential roles in the Southern Ocean.
These small pelagic crustaceans are prey for most of the region’s birds, mammals, and fish, as well as influencing the carbon cycle through export to the deep sea.
Additionally, krill are the target of a currently expanding commercial fishery.
Sustainably managing Antarctic krill requires an understanding of the factors influencing their growth, reproduction and mortality.
One such factor which remains very poorly kn…
