| The asker has declined this answer Comment: This isn't really declining your answer, it's just a question and a comment, and I, as an asker, am asked to wait 24 hours before grading, and I don't understand how I can comment on your answer without grading it in the process. Anyway, I can't find that document you refer to. And maybe I'm being dumb or something, but I can't fathom how "nedfangsting" can translate into "whaling commission". I'd appreciate it greatly if you could and would elaborate. Thanks for the quick answer! | ||

harvesting that reduces the number of the species Explanation: Literally, 'down-catching', but the meaning is whaling to a not sustainable extent, with deplenishment of the species as a result. |

peer agreement (net): +3deplepted /depletion of population due to harvest / catch Explanation: http://lama.kcc.hawaii.edu/praise/CRS/crsMar99b.html population was reduced due to a high level of harvesting Det var tidlig klart at bestandene av blåhval og knølhval var nedfangstet i Sørishavet. Hvalfangstkonvensjonen regulerte hvalfangsten helt fra starten. I Sørishavet ble det samlete fangstvolumet satt til 16 000 blåhvalenheter. En blåhvalenhet kunne bestå av 1 blåhval, 2 fi nnhval, 2,5 knølhval eller 6 seihval, og var beregnet ut fra hvor mye olje som kunne kokes av en hval av de forskjellige artene. |
