Darling Marine Center, School of Marine Sciences, University of Maine, Walpole, ME 04573, USA Received 3 November 1998; received in revised form 30 April 1999; accepted 5 May 1999 Abstract Three decapod species in the Gulf of Maine (American lobster Homarus americanus Milne Edwards, 1837, rock crab Cancer irroratus Say, 1817, and Jonah crab Cancer borealis Stimpson, 1859) were investigated to determine how their patterns of settlement and post-settlement abundance varied at different spatial and temporal scales. Spatial scales ranged from centimeters to hundreds of kilometers. Abundances of newly settled and older (sum of several cohorts) individuals were measured at different substrata, depths, sites within and among widely spaced regions, and along estuarine gradients. Temporal scales ranged from weekly censuses of new settlers within a season to inter-annual comparisons of settlement strengths. Over the scales considered here, only lobsters and rock crabs were consistently abundant in their early post- settlement stages. Compared to rock crabs, lobsters settled at lower densities but in speci®c habitats and over a narrower range of conditions. The abundance and distribution of older individuals of both species were, however, similar at all scales. This is consistent with previous observations that, by virtue of high fecundity, rock crabs have high rates of settlement, but do not discriminate among habitats, and suffer high levels of post-settlement mortality relative to lobsters.

  • Return the Tides Resource Book 1-1 Tidal Marsh Formation 1-2
    Return the Tides Resource Book World Wide Web Version CONSERVATION LAW FOUNDATION by Erno R. Bonebakker, Portland ME with contributions by Peter Shelley, CLF, Rockland ME Kim Spectre, CLF, Rockland ME CREDITS AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This resource book was developed during the Casco Bay “Return the Tides” pilot project in the summer of 1999. In large part, it is an adaptation and development of the marsh assessment manual developed by Rob Bryan of Maine Audubon and Michele Dionne of Wells NERR1 and the methods developed by the Parker River Clean Water Association in Newburyport, MA.2 Particular credit is due to Rob Bryan of Maine Audubon Society and Dr. Michele Dionne of the Wells Reserve for their guidance in the preparation of this manual. Rob’s unfailing support and advice has been a particular help. David Mountain and Tim Purinton of the Parker River Clean Water Association in Newburyport, MA were also critical in compiling their field methods handbook describing a simple way to develop and record useful inventory information using volunteers.. In addition, this book is the product of the thoughts and vision of a number of people who have dedicated themselves to estuaries: the science of estuary systems, the education of the public about the wonders of these systems, and the protection and restoration of these special places. They were completely generous in allowing us to borrow shamelessly from their writings and thinking and this effort in Maine would not have been possible without their gracious support. To that end, we would like to thank the following individuals and commend our readers to their efforts directly.

Lovett Maine Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife Augusta, Maine 04333 Prepared for: Maine Department of Marine Resources and Maine Department of Environmental Protection Bureau of Oil and Hazardous Material Control February, 1984 i PREFACE In 1981, a publication entitled Casco Bay Coastal Resource··rnventory (Hutchinson and Ferrero, 1981) reported on the marine wildlife populations in Casco Bay, .Maine, and assessed potential impacts on them resulting from oil spills. The study was funded jointly by the Maine Departments of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife (IF&W), Marine Resources (DMR), and Environ­ mental Protection (DEP). The purpose was to develop a basic resource in­ ventory for use in mitigating the effects of oil spills. Upon completion of that study, Casco Bay became the only section of the Maine Coast, and probably the only substantial section of the entire Atlantic Coast, for which exists a complete, seasonal inventory and cataloging of its wildlife populations and habitats.
