DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Katelyn Bosley\, Washington Department of Fish and Wil
 dlife\n\nTopic: Dungeness Crab in the Salish Sea: A Story of Collaborative
  Resource Management and Stewardship for a Sustainable Fishing Future\n\nT
 hroughout its range\, Dungeness crab serve as the backbone to many West Co
 ast communities who rely on the species due to its cultural\, ecological\,
  and economic significance. In Washington state\, Dungeness crab fisheries
  are co-managed by the Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) and 21 treat
 y tribes. This unique management structure was put into place following th
 e 1994 federal court ruling known as the ‘Rafeedie decision’ which rea
 ffirmed treaty harvest rights and required 50:50 sharing of shellfish reso
 urces between the treaty tribes and the citizens of Washington. In followi
 ng the provisions of the court order\, the Dungeness crab resource in the 
 Puget Sound region is collaboratively comanaged between the WDFW and Triba
 l nations across a complex landscape of spatial management areas\, each wi
 th its own set of technical and policy challenges. With emerging concerns 
 over the increasing threat of anthropogenic stressors and climate change o
 n Dungeness crab population health\, comanagers have collectively centered
  around the need to acquire more scientific data and information to better
  understand changes in Puget Sound crab populations and potential impacts 
 to fisheries. The Pacific Crab Research Group (PCRG) was formed in 2018 to
  facilitate collaboration and prioritize research needs to inform the deve
 lopment of adaptive fishery management practices. The PCRG is now comprise
 d of over 60 partnering entities and has initiated several collaborative p
 rojects including an ongoing larval monitoring network designed to assess 
 recruitment patterns across the Salish Sea.
