ANTARCTICA-ENVIRONMENT-AUSTRALIA-CONSERVATION-FISHING-FILES


(FILES) This handout file image from NASA's Terra satellite received in 2004 shows the Erebus ice tongue (R) protruding 12 kms (7 miles) off the coast of Ross Island into the frozen waters of McMurdo sound in Antarctica. Nations pushing to create vast ocean sanctuaries off Antarctica that cover an area the size of India hope to overcome objections to their plans at talks this week in Australia. Two proposals for huge no-fishing havens are on the table at the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) meeting in Hobart from October 23-November 1, 2013.
