Sustainability and traceability in marine cultured pearl production [PDF]
, 2014 For centuries, wild pearl oysters and mussels were fished in the quest for natural pearls and shell material. This eventually led to the drastic overexploitation of oyster stocks in many areas of the globe.

Gradients In Success: The Impact of Wave Energy, Elevation and Predation on Oyster Reef Restoration
, 2023 The structure of coastal communities varies spatially and temporally in response to abiotic and biotic stressors. Local environmental conditions can be modified by the presence of a foundation species, whose dominant physical presence facilitates the ...

Successful recruitment, survival and long-term persistence of eastern oyster and hooked mussel on a subtidal, artificial restoration reef system in Chesapeake Bay. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Restoration efforts with native eastern oyster, Crassostrea virginica, in Chesapeake Bay and elsewhere have been limited by shell availability, necessitating the use of alternative structures as subtidal reefs, yet these have rarely been evaluated ...
