The hard and soft of it: The role of substrate in patterns of phase dominance and phenology in Gracilaria vermiculophylla

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite the importance of the seasonal timing of events in the life cycle for understanding population dynamics, we lack information on the phenology of most macroalgal species. The red macroalga Gracilaria vermiculophylla has become common in both hard‐ and soft‐bottom habitats following its invasion throughout the Northern Hemisphere.

Successful eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) recruitment on intertidal artificial substrates in Virginia, USA

Ecosphere
Declines of eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) populations and scarcity of natural oyster shell necessitate quantifying the effectiveness of artificial oyster reef substrates over varying environmental conditions.

Assessing the physiological fitness of oysters (Crassostrea virginica) from Eastern New Brunswick, Canada

Aquaculture Reports, 2020
In Atlantic Canada, oyster farmers rely on wild oyster spat collections for their main source of seed. In this study, the physiological fitness of oysters originating from four seed producing areas in eastern New Brunswick (NB) was compared.

A clonal legacy? Reproductive mode variation in hard‐ and soft‐bottom Gracilaria vermiculophylla populations

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract The invasion of the red macroalga Gracilaria vermiculophylla provided an opportunity to investigate the influence of benthic habitats on the reproductive mode, population structure, and colonization dynamics in haploid‐diploid life cycles.

That sinkin’ feeling: Environmentally induced distress on a disappearing island

Medical Anthropology Quarterly, EarlyView.
Abstract Residents of Tangier Island, Virginia, a subsiding island in the Chesapeake Bay, embody psychosocial dimensions of environmental change. Analysis of ethnographic data shows islanders’ experiences and articulations of anxiety, panic, and despair as “that sinkin’ feeling,” resulting from the stress of living with the long‐term threat of imminent

Where We Go From Here: Harnessing Queer Perspectives to Advance Practice in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2026.
Science and society continuously shape one another; this relationship determines what science is funded, which inquiries are pursued, and whose voices are included in the production and dissemination of knowledge. Here, we draw on our queer lived experiences to outline six principles to confront existing biases and produce better science: (1) recognize

Interaction of Vibrio vulnificus and the Eastern Oyster, Crassostrea virginica

Journal of Food Protection, 1994
The estuarine bacterium, Vibrio vulnificus , is a human pathogen associated with the consumption of raw oysters. To date, no effective means exists for the elimination of this health hazard in oysters meant for raw consumption. The purpose of this study was to investígate the interaction between V. vulnificus and the eastern oyster.

Functionality and Appearance of Sorghum‐Pearl Millet Composite Flour Fortified With Oyster Mushroom for Thin Porridges

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.
This study investigated the functionality, color, pasting and rheological properties of sorghum–pearl millet composite flour fortified with oyster mushroom. Fortification increased water, oil and swelling capacities, while decreasing pasting viscosities. The color lightness and yellowness improved with increasing oyster mushroom levels.

Eastern United States: Potential Range for Ecologically Based Coastal Defenses in 2100

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 1, March 2026.
These maps show where black mangroves can potentially thrive along the US east coast by the end of the 21st century under several climate scenarios. Similar work was done for oyster reefs and saltmarshes. ABSTRACT Eco‐defenses (mangroves, oyster reefs, and saltmarshes) are ecosystems that can help to mitigate the effects of natural hazards and erosion ...

Shell‐Dense Island Off Culasawani, Vanua Levu Island, Fiji: Midden or Muddle?

Geoarchaeology, Volume 41, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Investigations of a 3000 m2 shell‐dense island surrounded by mangroves off the coast of Culasawani, a very lightly inhabited part of northern Vanua Levu Island in Fiji, suggest it is likely to be a ‘midden island’ rather than a (tsunami) wave deposit.
