Antarctica: Threats

Answer 9

How is Antarctica under threat from fishing and whaling?
- Antarctica marine waters are highly productive due to the Antarctic Convergence where the upwelling and mixing creates waters rich in oxygen and nutrients (1). This makes them highly lucrative for fishing businesses and over-fishing has occurred (1) (d)
- Many species of whales have been over-exploited However, the threat is now less due to the establishment of the IWC which banned commercial whaling globally in 1982 However, some nations such as the Japanese still whale under the guise of scientific research (1) (d). - 333 minke whales are captured per year by Japan
- Fishing ships are also responsible for ocean pollution, often dumpingfishing gear and waste into the ocean (1). The cold water temperatures are slow to break down pollutants (1) (d).
