The California Current Ecosystem (CCE) is a dynamic marine ecosystem from which many socioeconomically important fisheries species are harvested. Here, a genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) approach was used to examine genomic variation in an early life stage (megalopae) of the Dungeness crab (Cancer magister), which constitutes the most valuable single-species commercial fishery...
The power spectral density of the acoustic signature of
Dungeness crab was calculated by the use of digital computer.
The signal produced by the Dungeness crab was an analog signal.
Therefore a conversion of the signal from analog to digital was
necessary. This was done by sampling the acoustic signature...
A method for predicting the harvest of commercial Dungeness
crab (Cancer magister) one year in advance of the fishing season is
described. The technique is based on the hypothesis that the relative
abundance of sub-legal crabs one year is directly proportional to the
harvest of legal crabs the following year....
Osmotic and ionic regulation was studied in the Dungeness
crab, Cancer magister, after acute exposure to a range of five
salinities from 25% to 125% sea water (100% = 32%). Blood, urine
and muscle tissue were sampled at 24 and 48 hours after exposure.
Analyses were made of blood and...
A rapid gas liquid chromatographic method was adapted to processed
Dungeness crab for the determination of basic and neutral
volatiles. Methylamine, dimethylamine, and trimethylamine were
measured in processed Dungeness crab for the first time. Generally,
the range for trimethylamine was 42 ppm for frozen crab to 700 ppm
for iced...

The purpose of this study is to describe Dungeness crab marketing
from the ocean floor to the ultimate consumer; to identify
relations among the Oregon Dungeness crab industry, the Pacific
Coast Dungeness crab industry, and the Alaska King crab industry;
and to specify the relationships between fishermen's prices for
Dungeness...

Results of studies beginning in 1947 on the biology of the Dungeness crab (Cancer magister) in Oregon coastal waters are reported. A review is made of the history of the fishery with regard to trend of the catch by magnitude, area, and season; the development and conduct of the fishery...
