Larvae and juvenile blue crab oil exposure data

Oil exposures were performed on larval blue crabs at LUMCON in Cocodrie, Louisiana in 2014. Juvenile experiments were performed in New Orleans, Louisiana in 2015. Crabs were exposed to oil (500 ppb Macondo 252 surrogate Louisiana Sweet Crude oil) or control (no oil) for 24 hrs. Crabs were cultured for two consecutive molts. This dataset contains larval blue crab weight and length measurements. It also contains juvenile blue crab length and weight measurements along with molted carapace length, weight, and hardness measurements.

2014年，实验于美国路易斯安那州科科德里的路易斯安那大学海洋联盟（Louisiana Universities Marine Consortium，简称LUMCON）内开展，受试对象为蓝蟹幼体。2015年的幼蟹相关实验则于路易斯安那州新奥尔良进行。受试蟹类被分为两组，分别暴露于浓度为500 ppb的Macondo 252替代型路易斯安那轻质原油油液中，以及无油的对照组环境中，暴露时长均为24小时。随后，受试蟹类被连续培养至完成两次蜕皮过程。本数据集涵盖蓝蟹幼体的体重与体长测量数据，同时包含幼蟹的体长、体重测量结果，以及其蜕下甲壳的长度、重量与硬度测量数据。
