Temporal and spatial variability in size-at-maturity for the eastern Bering Sea snow and Tanner crab (Chionoecetes opilio and C. bairdi)

James T. Murphy

Summary: Growth in size stops at maturity for eastern Bering Sea snow and Tanner crab, with understanding the dynamics of size at maturity critical for fisheries management. Recruitment variability is a major driver of size at maturity, with male snow crab showing strong periodicity that may be useful for fisheries management.

Environmental drivers of commercial blue swimmer crab (Portunus armatus) catch rates in Western Australian fisheries

Danielle J. Johnston et al.

Summary: This study investigated the impact of environmental variables on commercial CPUE of blue swimmer crab in five Western Australian fisheries, finding that water temperature had a significant positive effect on CPUE universally. Wind speed and tide height also showed significant positive effects in three out of five fisheries. However, lunar illumination and freshwater flow had a smaller, negative impact on CPUE in only a few fisheries. Standardizing CPUE for these environmental effects highlighted clear variations from raw CPUE, emphasizing the importance of accounting for environmental factors in fishery assessments.

Theoretical size at the onset of maturity and its density-dependent variability as an option in crustacean fisheries management

Cesar Augusto da Silva Santana et al.

Summary: A new methodology was utilized to estimate the Theoretical Size at Onset of Maturity (TSOM) for female Norway lobster, showing linear relationships with population density, average size in females, and the size class at which 50% of females are sexually mature (L-50). This new metric has the potential to contribute to stock assessment, management, and calibration in data-limited areas, as well as being applicable in new species and meta-analyses with sparse maturity data.

Crab Diets Differ Between Adjacent Estuaries and Habitats Within a Sheltered Marine Embayment

Theo Campbell et al.

Summary: Portunid crabs were collected seasonally from estuaries and marine embayments in temperate south-western Australia, with their dietary composition varying significantly among locations and seasons. The study found that prey availability plays a major role in influencing the spatial and temporal differences in P. armatus diets in these coastal systems.
