Growth and mortality of the exploited mangrove crab Ucides cordatus (Ucididae) in N-Brazil. (2010)
Journal Article
Diele, K., & Koch, V. (2010). Growth and mortality of the exploited mangrove crab Ucides cordatus (Ucididae) in N-Brazil. Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 395, 171-180. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jembe.2010.08.029

Reliable estimates of growth and mortality parameters are crucial for understanding how populations of exploited species may respond to shifts in fishing pressure. Results of previous studies on growth of the ecologically and economically important m... Read More about Growth and mortality of the exploited mangrove crab Ucides cordatus (Ucididae) in N-Brazil..

Comparative population dynamics and life histories of North Brazilian Mangrove crabs, Genera Uca and Ucides (Ocypodoidea). (2010)
Book Chapter
Diele, K., & Koch, V. (2010). Comparative population dynamics and life histories of North Brazilian Mangrove crabs, Genera Uca and Ucides (Ocypodoidea). In Mangrove Dynamics and Management in North Brazil, 275-285. Springer. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3

Comparing life history variations between species helps understanding how different life history patterns may have evolved (Begon M, Harper JL, Townsend CR (1996) Ecology. Blackwell Science, Oxford). Here, we compare central aspects of the dynamics a... Read More about Comparative population dynamics and life histories of North Brazilian Mangrove crabs, Genera Uca and Ucides (Ocypodoidea)..

Simulating Ucides cordatus population recovery on fished grounds. (2010)
Book Chapter
Piou, C., Berger, U., & Diele, K. (2010). Simulating Ucides cordatus population recovery on fished grounds. In Mangrove Dynamics and Management in North Brazil, 299-303. Springer Berlin Heidelberg. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-13457-9_20

The recovery of fishing grounds of Ucides cordatus populations in the Caeté Peninsula is a recurrent process due to individual movements. However, these movements could not be observed in the field. A pattern-oriented modeling approach was used to in... Read More about Simulating Ucides cordatus population recovery on fished grounds..

Influence of natural settlement cues on the metamorphosis of fiddler crab megalopar, Uca vocator (Decapoda: Ocypodidae). (2010)
Journal Article
Simith, D. D. J. D. B., Diele, K., & Abrunhosa, F. A. (2010). Influence of natural settlement cues on the metamorphosis of fiddler crab megalopar, Uca vocator (Decapoda: Ocypodidae). Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 82, 313-321. https://doi.org/10.1590/S0001-37652010000200007

Megalopae of many decapod crab species accelerate their development time to metamorphosis (TTM) when exposed to natural physical and/or chemical cues characteristic of the parental habitat. In the present study, the influence of natural settlement cu...
