Integrating Larval Dispersal, Permitting, and Logistical Factors Within a Validated Habitat Suitability Index for Oyster Restoration

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2018
Habitat suitability index (HSI) models are increasingly used to guide ecological restoration. Successful restoration is a byproduct of several factors, including physical and biological processes, as well as permitting and logistical considerations ...

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 ...

The impacts of recycled concrete aggregate (RCA) on epifaunal community structure and eastern oyster recruitment: Implication of using RCA as bottom conditioning material for oyster restoration and aquaculture

Current Research in Environmental Sustainability, 2020
The eastern oyster (Crassostrea virginica) is a keystone species in the estuaries of the mid-Atlantic of the United States. Its population experienced drastic declines in the last century due to overfishing, habitat loss, and disease.

Oyster toadfish (Opsanus tau) boatwhistle call detection and patterns within a large-scale oyster restoration site. [PDF]

PLoS One, 2017
During May 2015, passive acoustic recorders were deployed at eight subtidal oyster reefs within Harris Creek Oyster Sanctuary in Chesapeake Bay, Maryland USA. These sites were selected to represent both restored and unrestored habitats having a range of oyster densities.

Oyster reef restoration - aquaculture interactions: maximizing positive synergies

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Globally, oyster reef restoration is on the rise. In many instances, restoration is occurring alongside established oyster aquaculture industries that grew to prominence following oyster reef demise. This paper examines the potential positive and negative interactions between the two industries and identifies key factors that may promote positive ...
