Oyster reef habitat characteristics and nekton communities vary with restoration method in a large‐scale project

open access: yesEcosphere, Volume 17, Issue 9, September 2026.
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 ...

The physical and ecological impacts of mangrove expansion and mangrove removal: Tauranga Harbour, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The mangrove Avicennia marina var. australasica is rapidly colonising intertidal sandflats within a number of estuaries of the North Island of New Zealand. Many local residents perceive this change to be detrimental to the ecology and aesthetics of their

Bed‐level tools for monitoring erosion and accretion patterns: Flume validation and field testing

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography: Methods, Volume 24, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Monitoring short‐term changes in surface sediment elevation is fundamental to understanding erosion, transport, and deposition dynamics in shallow coastal environments. However, commonly used field approaches, such as horizontal markers, sediment erosion tables, subsurface sediment plates, or erosion pins, are not always cross‐validated under ...

Identity of Crassostrea praia () and other oysters from Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil [PDF]

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Biology
The study aimed to identify species of the genus Crassostrea from Rio Grande do Sul and to trace the identity of C. praia, a species recognized under conchological or distributive precepts of native oyster species occurring in an ecological gradient ...

Reconnaissance Investigation of Sedimentation Patterns in a Small Modern Anthropogenically Influenced Inlet, Otūwhero Estuary, Abel Tasman National Park, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 60, Issue 3, September 2026.
The structurally controlled Otūwhero estuary on the SE boundary of Abel Tasman National Park is a small partially filled incised valley. The small size, limited number of fluvial inputs, accessibility and surrounding land use made it an ideal candidate on which to investigate potential climate‐induced estuarine behaviour. Surficial sediment samples and

Temperature, but not acidification, influences the growth and lipid profile of juvenile sand whiting, Sillago ciliata (Cuvier 1829)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 109, Issue 3, Page 1507-1516, September 2026.
Abstract Seafood provides an essential source of macro‐ and micronutrients for coastal communities worldwide. Climate change is a key threat to seafood security, altering the sizes, abundances, distributions, physiology and ecological interactions of fisheries species, and increasingly, there is evidence of impacts to seafood nutritional quality.

The biology and culture of tropical oysters [PDF]

open access: yes
Reviews the biology and ecology of oysters, and experimental and culture techniques used in the tropics; describes problems in tropical oyster farming and identifies research needs to further develop this form of aquaculture.

Production and decay of mangrove (Avicennia marina subsp. australasica) detritus and its effects on coastal benthic communities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Temperate mangrove forests have been poorly studied compared to their tropical counterparts, because they constitute just 1.4% of the global mangrove forest area. Research from tropical mangrove forests suggests they are open systems that provide a large
