The crab research program, called "Crab Restoration and the Bay" or C.R.A.B.,
unites both the financial and mental resources of several groups, including The
University of Maryland Biotechnology Institute's (UMBI) Center of Marine Biology
(COMB), Phillips Foods and Seafood Restaurants (Phillips), the Smithsonian
Environmental Research Center (SERC), the Maryland Watermen's Association and
the State of Maryland, among others. Seed money from the State of Maryland
helped COMB initiate the Blue Crab Research Program in the Fall of 2000. Since
that time, COMB and SERC have tagged and
released hatchery-reared offspring in
Maryland waters and continue to investigate new and improved methods for
studying the basic biology our Chesapeake blue crab, also known as Callinectes
sapidus, or "beautiful swimmer."
