Exploring the significance of Kenya's indigenous and emerging blue foods for sustainable aquaculture development. A review

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Kenya's aquaculture sector is at a pivotal stage, transitioning from a historical reliance on Nile tilapia and African catfish toward a more diversified production portfolio that integrates indigenous and emerging freshwater and marine species. This shift is increasingly recognized as essential to enhance climate resilience, food security, and

Location and reef size drive oyster reef restoration success

Restoration Ecology
Optimizing habitat restoration success requires understanding how restoration location and design enhance the persistence and function of a restored habitat. Particular attention to the configuration of structure and its interaction with landscape‐scale processes is critical for enhancing the habitat value of restored areas.

Oyster Reefs at Risk and Recommendations for Conservation, Restoration, and Management

BioScience, 2011
Native oyster reefs once dominated many estuaries, ecologically and economically. Centuries of resource extraction exacerbated by coastal degradation have pushed oyster reefs to the brink of functional extinction worldwide. We examined the condition of oyster reefs across 144 bays and 44 ecoregions; our comparisons of past with present abundances ...
