Life Cycle Assessments of Bivalve Aquaculture: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis
Life cycle assessment (LCA) of bivalve aquaculture systems indicates generally low environmental impacts across mussel, oyster, and clam production. For a functional unit of 1 t live weight bivalves at farm gate, median impacts were 385 kg CO2‐eq for climate change, 0.25 kg PO43−‐eq for eutrophication, 0.014 kg N‐eq for marine eutrophication, 1.86 kg ...

Reef design influences habitat provision on a restored oyster reef
Habitat restoration efforts are often limited by cost, making it important that available funds are used efficiently and effectively to achieve desired restoration goals. In this study, we evaluate habitat provision for oysters and motile epifauna on restored oyster reefs in a northwestern Gulf of Mexico estuary constructed with discrete high vertical ...

Nitrogen burial restored oyster reefs
The purpose of this work is to quantify nitrogen burial rates in restored oyster reefs within different habitat contexts. Direct measurements of nitrogen burial are lacking but could inform an important component of water quality regulation by estuarine ...
