King crab

Red king crabs were collected for stomach analysis and abundance estimates by using a specially designed beam trawl, previously used in surveys for stock assessment by the Institute of Marine Research (IMR). The crab trawl is 6 m wide, 1 m high, and is equipped with a 135 mm mesh size polyethylene net (Sundet & Berenboim 2008). The hauling speed was approximately 1.65 kn. It was not possible to use a fixed standardized trawling distance because of the changing and rocky bottom topography. Four hauls

No one realize that if the king crabs come up to the surface, it can change one thing but in a very big way. There is no proof that the king crabs will move to the surface and change the ecosystem. Because there is no proof, researchers had to test this hypothesis. James McClintock who is an author to the study, he explains how they can know if the king crabs will travel to the surface or not. The researchers would have to track the crabs’ movements by following them with a camera. As the ocean warms

for, it is shellfish. Crab feasts accompanied by other delicious shellfish are very important and traditional events for Maryland residents. As the authors of Chesapeake Bay Notes and Sketches wrote, according to some translations of Native American languages, the Chesapeake Bay is named “Great Shellfish Bay.” The Bay is the leading source in soft-shell clams, and hard-shell clams are on the rise (“Chesapeake Wildlife”).

Steinbeck states, “The beach was yellow sand, but at the water’s edge a rubble of shell and algae took its place. Fiddler crabs bubbled and sputtered in their holes in the sand, and in the shallows little lobsters popped in and out of their tiny homes in the rubble and sand. The sea bottom was rich with crawling and swimming and growing things. The brown algae waved in the

remarks that “[h]e’d be like mihei gawi, the little blue hermit crab, scuttling from his shell to a new one once a year, easy prey for any passing squid” (16). Shortly after the wave, Mau again identifies as a blue hermit crab, remarking that “he [has] no soul [because he did not undergo the ceremonies that would grant one a man soul]. His boy soul had vanished with the island, and he’d never get a man soul now. He [is] the blue hermit crab, hurrying from one shell to another, and the big shell he had

A long time ago crabs used to walk straight and forward. They lived in an oasis by a desert. They were happy there, they had all that they needed, food, water, shelter and entertainment in a paradise. The oasis was sacred to Poseidon, and he blessed them so they would never have any problems under the oasis boundaries.

Case Study: Red Lobster 1. Why do you think Red Lobster relies on so much on Internet surveys to track customer opinions, preferences, and criticism? What are the advantages of online questionnaires versus traditional surveys conducted over the phone or through the mail? ( Gideon Quarcoo) Red Lobster relies on internet survey for the following reasons: (source: Introduction to Marketing, by McDaniel, Lamb & Hair. Pg 284.) The internet is a phenomenon technological
