Dynamics of Restored and Natural Oyster Reefs After a Hurricane [PDF]
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Restoration of shellfish reefs has increased exponentially over the past two decades, due in part to increased awareness of widespread oyster habitat loss.

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 Oysters and barnacles are dominant inhabitants of natural and restored oyster reefs around the world, and high areal coverage of barnacles at natural or restored reefs commonly decreases substrate accessibility for oyster settlement.

Global Change Biology, 2023 AbstractGlobally, oyster reef restoration is one of the most widely applied coastal restoration interventions. While reefs are focal points of processes tightly linked to the carbonate system such as shell formation and respiration, how these processes alter reef carbonate chemistry relative to the surrounding seawater is unclear.

Alternative Substrates Used for Oyster Reef Restoration: A Review [PDF]
Journal of Shellfish Research, 2020 Oyster populations and reef habitats have notably declined in the last century around the world. The ecological, economic, and cultural values of oysters have led to a variety of restoration efforts seeking to recover these lost benefits. Limitations of the native oyster shell substrate and the large-scale nature of many restoration projects have ...

Oyster reef restoration supports increased nekton biomass and potential commercial fishery value [PDF]
PeerJ, 2015 Across the globe, discussions centered on the value of nature drive many conservation and restoration decisions. As a result, justification for management activities increasingly asks for two lines of evidence: (1) biological proof of augmented ecosystem

Gear and survey efficiency of patent tongs for oyster populations on restoration reefs. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Surveys of restored oyster reefs need to produce accurate population estimates to assess the efficacy of restoration. Due to the complex structure of subtidal oyster reefs, one effective and efficient means to sample is by patent tongs, rather than SCUBA,
