Response of eelgrass (Zostera marina) to an adjacent Olympia oyster restoration project. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 Recent restoration efforts for the native Olympia oyster, Ostrea lurida, are commonly motivated by potential return of oyster-associated ecosystem services, including increased water filtration. The potential impact of such restoration on another species

Meta-analysis of ecosystem services associated with oyster restoration. [PDF]
Conserv Biol, 2023 Abstract Restoration of foundation species promises to reverse environmental degradation and return lost ecosystem services, but a lack of standardized evaluation across projects limits understanding of recovery, especially in marine systems.

Integrating ecosystem services considerations within a GIS-based habitat suitability index for oyster restoration. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2019 Geospatial habitat suitability index (HSI) models have emerged as powerful tools that integrate pertinent spatial information to guide habitat restoration efforts, but have rarely accounted for spatial variation in ecosystem service provision.

Quantitative validation of a habitat suitability index for oyster restoration [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2016 Habitat suitability index (HSI) models provide spatially explicit information on the capacity of a given habitat to support a species of interest, and their prevalence has increased dramatically in recent years.

NORA moving forward: Developing an oyster restoration network in Europe to support the Berlin Oyster Recommendation [PDF]
Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, 2020 Abstract The Native Oyster Restoration Alliance (NORA) supports the protection and ecological restoration of the native European oyster, Ostrea edulis, and its habitat across its current and historical biogeographical range. NORA works to overcome barriers to the conservation, restoration, and recovery of the European oyster by providing a platform ...

Facilitating Better Outcomes: How Positive Species Interactions Can Improve Oyster Reef Restoration
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020 Over 85% of the world's oyster reefs have been lost in the past two centuries, triggering a global effort to restore shellfish reef ecosystems and the ecosystem services they provide.

Restoration EcologyIn the United States, restoring oyster reefs is increasingly a priority, due to a desire to return the economic, ecological, and social services the habitat can provide. This growing demand for oyster reef restoration has led to the development of an oyster reef restoration economy.
