contents A Dynamic Energy Budget Model for the Non-Continuous and Biphasic Growth of the Pond-Cultured Swimming Crab, . Jiang, Yi Lin, Fan Zhang, Jingyan Bao, Ming Gao, Baoquan Li, Jitao Meng, Xianliang The swimming crab, , is an important mariculture crustacean species in China. To quantitatively characterize its discontinuous and biphasic growth under intensive aquaculture conditions, we developed a modified growth model based on the dynamic energy budget (DEB) theory. The model incorporates a discontinuous growth representation that explicitly accounts for the molting process. Molting events were parameterized using a threshold ratio (α), defined as the carbon weight-to-wet weight ratio, with stage-dependent critical values derived from laboratory experiments and published datasets. Laboratory experiments were designed to estimate the energy-budget-related parameters together with data from the literature. In addition, by introducing a feedback mechanism for the energy demand of ovarian development, a set of κ values was calibrated with data from the literature to reproduce the stage-specific growth determined by ovarian development. The model was validated with growth data from several published studies related to the growth of , as well as measurements from the aquaculture ponds. Multiple goodness-of-fit indices (R-square, modeling efficiency, and Theil's inequality coefficient) confirmed that the modified DEB model accurately reproduced both wet weight and ovarian growth trajectories, along with the characteristic non-continuous pattern of molting-driven wet weight increase. The individual growth model can be a useful tool for optimizing the intensive culture practice of the swimming crab in the aquaculture ponds and assessing the environmental impact of crab aquaculture.
