Adaptive Restoration Reveals Potential Effect of Tidal Elevation on Oyster Restoration Outcomes

Wetlands, 2019
Oyster restoration practitioners augment habitat with hard substrata to increase oyster recruitment, but success can be complicated by non-indigenous species recruitment and physical processes such as sedimentation. From June 2012 to June 2014, we examined changes in shell cover and recruitment of native Ostrea lurida and non-indigenous, global invader

Reef design and site hydrodynamics mediate oyster restoration and marsh stabilization outcomes.

Ecological Applications, 2021
The detrimental ecological impacts of engineered shoreline protection methods (e.g. seawalls) and the need to protect the coastal zone have prompted calls for greater use of natural and nature-based infrastructure (NNBI).

Cathodically protected steel as an alternative to plastic for oyster restoration mats

, 2021
Oyster populations in many coastal areas have decreased as a result of overharvesting and habitat degradation. In order to help restore oyster populations and natural water filtration, many restoration efforts utilize plastic mesh to reseed oyster reefs.

The hybrid approach to monitoring: a remote Rapid Assessment Protocol (RAP) complements existing monitoring tools for oyster restoration and management

Restoration Ecology
Accurate and efficient monitoring of oyster reefs is critical for fisheries management and restoration. However, monitoring subtidal reefs requires labor‐intensive methods, such as sampling by SCUBA divers.

Oyster Reef Restoration May Influence Local Sediment Geochemistry Prior to Introduction of Live Oysters

Gulf and Caribbean Research, 2023
Oyster reefs provide crucial ecosystem services, but their populations are declining worldwide. Oyster reef restoration efforts are underway in many regions, including the Gulf Coast of the United States, where the intertidal oyster populations of the eastern oyster, Crassostrea virginica, have experienced significant declines.

GIS-based spatial suitability assessment for pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas reef restoration: A case study of Laizhou Bay, China.

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2023
The oyster reef restoration has raised concerns worldwide due to the advantage of alleviating eutrophication and other ecosystem services. The necessary prerequisite for oyster restoration is identifying suitable sites.

Restoring and sustaining oyster reefs: drivers of spatial dynamics in oyster populations

2023
Foundation species define ecosystems by building physical structure and sustaining ecosystem services, such as carbon sequestration, nutrient cycling, habitat provision, and erosion control. The decline of foundation species has prompted intensified restoration efforts, yet their restoration has yielded inconsistent levels of success.

Coupling breakwalls with oyster restoration structures enhances living shoreline performance along energetic shorelines

, 2020
Interest and investment in constructing living shorelines rather than harder engineering structures are on the rise worldwide. However, the performance of these interventions in rejuvenating coastal habitats, depositing fine sediments with elevated ...
