AbstractIndicator species are often used to reveal trends and trophic “hotspots” for fishery and marine food web monitoring and can be particularly useful in the remote Southern Ocean due to the cost and accessibility of ship-based marine research. Biologging, the use of micro-electronic animal borne devices, is increasingly being applied to detect areas of species abundance and diversity and can be important for management efforts. An essential component to effective utilization of biologging is ground
