Intertidal migration and habitat use by subadult Dungeness crab Cancer magister in a NE Pacific estuary (2006, background): “Large-scale movements are well documented and are often associated with ontogenetic shifts in resource use (e.g. Gonzalez Gurriaran et al. 2002, Moksnes 2002) and/or seasonal movements to wintering grounds (e.g. Naylor 1962, Stone & O’Clair 2001) or reproductive habitats (e.g. Hooper 1986, Stone &…”
Causes of decoupling between larval supply and settlement and consequences for understanding recruitment and population connectivity (2010, background): “Moksnes (2002) found that predation of settlers was the greatest cause of mortality for shore crabs, regardless of the type of habitat (open sand and structurally complex refuges).”
Conceptual Model Development for Invasive Species and a Regional Risk Assessment Case Study: The European Green Crab, Carcinus maenas, at Cherry Point, Washington, USA (2007, background): “…1967; Cohen et al. 1995; Jamieson et al. 1998; Klein Breteler 1976; Ruiz et al. 1999) but most crabs, especially juveniles, prefer complex refuge including mussel beds, macroalgae, eelgrass, and other vegetation (Cohen et al. 1995; Crothers 1967; Hedvall et al. 1998; Moksnes 2002; Ropes 1968).”
Cannibalism of Decapod Crustaceans and Implications for Their Aquaculture: A Review of its Prevalence, Influencing Factors, and Mitigating Methods (2017, background): “…shown to actively select shelters with more complex structures, such as sea grasses, pebbles, crushed shells, and seaweed over finer substrates such as sand (Moksnes et al., 1998; Stevens and Kittaka, 1998; McDonald et al., 2001; Moksnes, 2002; van Montfrans et al., 2003; Tapella et al., 2012).”
Interference competition for space in nursery habitats: density-dependent effects on growth and dispersal in juvenile shore crabs Carcinus maenas (2004, methodology): “…structurally complex habitats for shelter (Hedvall et al. 1998, Moksnes 2002, Moksnes et al. 2003), and juveniles are concentrated at high densities (up to 500 crabs m–2) primarily in blue mussel beds Mytilus edulis L. but also in eelgrass beds Zostera marina L. and macroalgae (Moksnes 2002).”
Phenotype-environment matching in the shore crab (Carcinus maenas) (2006, background): “Removing cores and sieving the results ( Moksnes 2002 ) from individual habitats was considered too destructive given the protected status of the sites.”
