Table 6.8 Estimates of Annual Consumption of Krill by Whales 



Results where all the factors in the calculation have been given are \inderlined 



» Cited by Nemoto and Nasu 1975 but reference not given 



♦* Cited by Nanoto and Nasu 1975 



*** May refer to total krill biomass 



*•♦* Calculated from his results 



N.B. (There is a much longer list of references quoting krill constiraption by whales but 

 those seen are derived from those tabulated). 



The total estimated prcluction based on consumption by predators is summarized in 

 Table 6.9. 



Clearly, in spite of the enciroous uncertainty attached to these estimates (Table 6.9) 

 the total amount of krill consumed by predators is large,, thus confirming the estimates 

 by other methods.
