The impacts of biological invasions

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Denitrification and nutrient assimilation on a restored oyster reef [PDF]

Marine Ecology Progress Series, 2013
At a restored reef site and a control site in the Choptank River, Maryland, USA, we partially quantified the effect of oyster reef resto- ration on the removal of nutrients from the water column by determining seasonal fluxes of oxygen (O2), ammonium (NH4 + ), combined nitrate and nitrite (NO2+3), di-nitrogen (N2) and soluble reactive phosphorus (SRP ...

Systems of reciprocity in human–ocean relationships: Across time, place, language and culture

People and Nature, Volume 8, Issue 6, Page 1660-1675, June 2026.
Abstract In the face of large‐scale marine environmental challenges, solutions that meaningfully capture the complexity of socio‐cultural and economic factors contributing to such issues—and their solutions—are urgently needed. This scoping review explores examples of reciprocity in human–ocean relationships to inform the conceptual underpinning and ...

Habitat assessment of a restored oyster reef in South Texas

, 2018
Oyster reefs are important foundational habitats and provide many ecosystem services. A century of habitat degradation has resulted in substantial reductions in the extent and quality of oyster reefs in many estuaries, thus spurring restoration efforts.

Late Jurassic Carbon Isotope Excursion (Middle Oxfordian Event) Paces With Astronomical Forcing in the Northwestern Tethys

Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract Marine carbonate carbon isotopes (δ13C), over orbital to multi‐million‐year timescales, provide critical insight into the carbon cycle connecting Earth's atmosphere, lithosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere. However, the influence of astronomical forcing on deep time carbon cycle dynamics remains poorly constrained.

Improving Living Resource Responses in Ecosystem Restoration: An Illustration Using the Chesapeake Bay

JAWRA Journal of the American Water Resources Association, Volume 62, Issue 3, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Two key components of large‐scale ecosystem restoration planning are: (1) prioritizing individual projects based on how living resources respond, and (2) selecting and analyzing indicators of living resources to assess restoration progress and performance.

Oyster Restoration Efforts in Virginia

, 1999
Long-term restoration of the Virginia Oyster resource has been assisted by a series of governmental and regulatory initiatives. Following the 1990 Blue Ribbon Panel the Virginia Marine Resources Commission set as goals that the oyster resources and ...

These Boots Are Made for Walking: Sex‐Specific Physiological and Metabolomic Strategies Reflect Male‐Skewed Vulnerability to Ocean Warming in a Keystone Amphipod

Global Change Biology, Volume 32, Issue 6, June 2026.
Sex‐specific responses to ocean warming shape thermal tolerance, fitness, and metabolomic profiles in a keystone amphipod. Females exhibit higher thermal limits and broader safety margins than males. Warming reduces survival and reproductive output, while it increases offspring size.

Oyster Reefs in Northern Gulf of Mexico Estuaries Harbor Diverse Fish and Decapod Crustacean Assemblages: A Meta-Synthesis

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Oyster reefs provide habitat for numerous fish and decapod crustacean species that mediate ecosystem functioning and support vibrant fisheries. Recent focus on the restoration of eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) reefs stems from this role as a ...
