This dataset contains randomly chosen samples of crab collected from the annual NOAA/NMFS/AFSC/RACE
crab-groundfish bottom trawl survey of the eastern Bering Sea continental shelf. The
standard survey area, surveyed each year since 1975, encompasses a major portion of
the eastern Bering Sea shelf between the 20 meter and 200 meter isobaths and from
the Alaska Peninsula to the north of St. Matthew Island. The study area is divided
into a grid with cell sizes of 20 x 20 nautical miles (37 x 37 kilometers). Sampling
takes place within each 20 x 20 nautical mile grid cell. Each tow is one-half hour
in duration, averaging 1.54 nautical miles (2.86 kilometers) - exact tow duration
and distance fished for each haul can be found in RACEBASE.HAUL.

Six index sites, composed of approximately 10 survey stations each, were preselected
prior to the RACE crab-groundfish bottom trawl survey. The target sample size was
200 randomly chosen crabs (20 samples from each station).
The sex of the crab is identified (1 = Male, 2 = Female, 3 = Unknown, 9 = no sex reported
for this crab specimen). Individual crab carapaces were measured (± 1 mm), excluding
spines, and are reported as size. Null or blank fields in data represent no size
information reported for crab specimen. Chela height is measured on right chela at
greatest distance (± 0.1 mm) excluding spines. Null or blank fields in data represent
no chela height information reported for crab specimen.

Shell condition class serves as a semi-quantitative index of molt status and time
in shell post-molt. Carapace shell condition was assigned to one of six classes according
to specific criteria (0 = premolt or molting, 1 = soft and pliable, 2 = new hardshell
both firm and clean, 3 = oldshell slightly worn, 4 = oldshell worn, 5 = very oldshell,
9 = no shell condition information reported for crab specimen).

DNA was extracted using modified Ivanova et al. (2006) protocol.
Extracted DNA was assayed with two primer sets, targeting either 18S or ITS1 rDNA,
to determine presence or absence of Hematodinium spp. Refer to metadata Point of
Contact for PCR conditions. PCR Result is identified (0 = negative for Hematodinium
DNA, 1 = positive for Hematodinium DNA, 3 = undetermined, at the limit of detection).
