Dungeness Crab in the Salish Sea: Highlight Recent Research in Changing Waters
Dungeness crab (Cancer magister) is one of the most highly valued marine species in the Pacific Northwest, holding economic, recreational, and cultural significance in the region. Despite its importance, very little is known about Dungeness crab recruitment patterns, population structures, and life...
