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

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.

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.

Eastern oysters Crassostrea virginica settle near inlets in a lagoonal estuary: spatial and temporal distribution of recruitment in Mid-Atlantic Coastal Bays (Maryland, USA) [PDF]
PeerJ, 2023 Background Declines of the Eastern oyster, Crassostrea virginica, and its numerous ecological benefits have spurred oyster restoration initiatives. Successful restoration of a self-sustaining oyster population requires evaluating the temporal and spatial
