1		AFSC/RACE/GAP/Nichol: Archival tag depth and temperature data from snow crab	Seasonal migration of commercial-size (=102 mm carapace width [CW]), morphometrically mature (MM) snow crabs (Chionoecetes opilio) from the eastern Bering Sea was examined in relation to the summer distribution of mature females to identify spatiotemporal overlap of males and females and determine the likelihood of mating associations for specific reproductive stages. Depth variation associated with this migration was examined to determine whether seasonal migrations contribute to previously recognized spatial differences in distributions of commercial-size males caught in the winter fishery and in the National Marine Fisheries Service summer bottom trawl survey. Depth data from 33 data storage tags attached to commercial-size MM males during 2010 and 2011 indicated that most males moved inshore during spring?a movement that would allow them to mate with multiparous females but not with pubescent-primiparous females. Smaller tagged males (100?102 mm CW) underwent more extensive inshore migrations, and several of them traveled more than 100 km in one direction. Both tagging and distribution data indicated that most commercial-size MM males remained predominantly on the outer shelf throughout the year (despite some inshore movements during spring) and, therefore, these males did not contribute greatly to the spatial differences observed between winter and summer.
