Establishment of brown shrimp (Crangon crangon) in a newly colonized area
The brown shrimp ( Crangon crangon ) is widely distributed in the coastal areas of the eastern Atlantic, but was only recently found in Icelandic waters. In this study, annual and seasonal changes in population abundance of brown shrimp southwest of Iceland were recorded from 2005 to 2014 in order t...
