The goals of this study were to examine 1) the depth distribution of newly settled crabs and how it changes through the summer, 2) the possible association between crabs and habitat created by polychaete worm tubes, and 3) differences in crab size and distribution between embayments with varying characteristics of sediment and physical factors. The work that produced this dataset was supported by 2010 and 2011 Essential Fish Habitat funds from the NOAA Alaska Fisheries Science Center. completed Ryer, Cliff cliff.ryer@noaa.gov pointOfContact Spencer, Mara mara.spencer@noaa.gov custodian notPlanned Alaska Tanner crab depth distribution growth habitat association worm tubes theme Kodiak Island place seafloor stratum DOC/NOAA/NMFS/AFSC > Alaska Fisheries Science Center, National Marine Fisheries Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2017-04-24 publication 8.5 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.

Depth distribution, habitat associations, and differential growth of newly settled southern Tanner crab (Chionoecetes bairdi) in embayments around Kodiak Island, Alaska. Fishery Bulletin. 113: 256-269. Completeness Report Not applicable Conceptual Consistency Not applicable Field work was conducted at 4 sites in the coastal water around the eastern end of Kodiak Island, Alaska. Crab densities were estimated from sampling conducted with a video camera sled ("scrape"), that was augmented with a cutter bar and a codend. Scrape tows were made parallel to shore at depths ranging from 3 to 25 m. The distance towed was determined with the GPS coordinates of the start and end of each tow. During both 2010 and 2011 a smaller number of tows were conducted with a 2-m plumb staff beam trawl, which allowed sampling of crabs at greater depths than with the scrape. Using video from scrape tows, relative abundance of worm tubes was characterized along each tow. During June, July, and August of 2010, divers used quadrats to estimate densities of crabs and worm tubes. Carapace widths of crabs from scrape tows were measured during July and August of 2010 and during all 4 months (May-August) in 2011.
