Abstract Introduction In response to the decline of eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) populations in Chesapeake Bay, a large‐scale restoration initiative was launched in Harris Creek, Maryland, in 2011. This effort marked a shift from fragmented projects toward a coordinated, sanctuary‐based approach to oyster restoration.

ABSTRACT Marine aquaculture is expanding globally, yet its interactions with surrounding ecosystems remain complex and insufficiently understood. This study reviews the fluxes of energy and nutrients from three major aquaculture systems: finfish cages, suspended bivalves, and seaweed farms and considers their implications for ecosystem functioning and ...

Assessment of recent eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) reef restoration projects in the Great Bay Estuary, New Hampshire: Planning for the future [PDF]
Current oyster populations in New Hampshire total less than 10% of what they were in the 1980s, and the causal factors for the declines include disease, sedimentation, and human harvest.

Hybrid oysters often show heterosis in growth rate, weight, survival and adaptability to extremes of salinity. Oysters have also been used as model organisms to study the evolution of host-defense system. To gain comprehensive knowledge about various physiological processes in hybrid oysters under low salinity stress, we performed transcriptomic ...

This study integrates thermal performance curves with species distribution modeling to assess how climate‐driven temperature changes affect feeding efficiency across freshwater, marine, and terrestrial species. By mapping thermal habitat suitability and projected feeding‐rate shifts, we develop a priority ranking framework to identify species and ...

Oyster Bed Mapping in the Great Bay Estuary, 2012-2013 [PDF]
Six major oyster beds (reefs) in New Hampshire are mapped periodically to assess wild oyster populations in the Great Bay Estuary. Data on the spatial extent of the beds are combined with density and other measures to estimate the abundances of live ...
