Marine Functional Connectivity Contributes to Ecosystem Functioning Across Multiple Scales
ABSTRACT The passive transport and active movements of marine organisms between habitats and ecosystems, known as marine functional connectivity, play a critical role in the functioning of marine ecosystems. However, marine functional connectivity, particularly at large spatial scales, is often understudied, and consequently tends to be overlooked in ...

Abstract Restoration in coastal ecosystems is revitalizing populations of foundation species that provide valuable habitat to support biodiversity and ecosystem services. The goals of oyster reef restoration include increasing oyster populations and oyster reef ecosystem services such as provision of habitat for commercially and ecologically valuable ...

Abstract Harmful algal blooms (HABs) of Alexandrium catenella occur annually in the Gulf of Maine, leading to accumulation of paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) in bivalve mollusks and closure of harvesting areas. State monitoring programs in the region rely on weekly shellfish sampling and toxin analysis, requiring extensive effort with limited ...

Physiological differences between wild and cultured bivalves in Prince Edward Island, Canada
Bivalve culture in Canada increased by 25% from 2000 to 2016. In Prince Edward Island (PEI), bivalves are cultivated in bays and estuaries and there is limited space for further aquaculture expansion.

Invertebrates at the Land‐Sea Interface in a Climate Change World: Heatwaves, Floods, Fire and Ice
Diverse communities of coastal marine invertebrates living on rocky shores, mudflats, mangroves and saltmarsh occur at the interface between marine and terrestrial environments, where they are vulnerable to the combined impacts of extreme climatic events (ECEs) such as marine and atmospheric heatwaves, fire, flooding, hyposalinity and changes in ...
