2020
Bakanev, S.V. | Pavlov, V.A.
The study deals with the up-to-date status of snow crab stock in the Kara Sea and the prospects of the related fishery in the region. Currently, snow crab is distributed on an area of about 270 000 km2 (app. 30% of the Kara Sea). The potential of further expansion is not quite fulfilled though. Comparative analysis of the distribution density of the stocks in the Barents Sea and the Kara Sea revealed a chance to initiate the fishery in the new region in the upcoming years. The current stock of snow crab in the Kara Sea is estimated as high as 11000 tones with potential 1,100–2,500 tones as annual yield. Further increase in the stock is possible, provided both increase in abundance within the existing area and extension of the latter
