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.

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.

Oyster Habitat Restoration and Shoreline Protection
EDIS, 2022 As the climate continues to change, coastal areas and the people that live there face increasing risks from erosion and wave damage. This is made worse by declines in natural oyster reefs, which would provide some natural protection. However, oysters can be restored for the specific purposes of protecting shorelines.

Farming and Restoring Oysters to Combat Climate Change [PDF]
Journal of Science Policy & Governance, 2021 To confront the myriad challenges posed by climate change, we present oysters as a nature-based solution with an abundance of environmental benefits and economic stimulus to coastal communities. We encourage the Biden administration to support international efforts to restore oyster reefs by presenting an “Oyster Restoration Initiative” to the World ...

Restoration of eastern oyster populations with positive density dependence [PDF]
Ecological Applications, 2017 Abstract Positive density dependence (i.e., Allee effects) can create a threshold of population states below which extinction of the population occurs. The existence of this threshold, which can often be a complex, multi‐dimensional surface, rather than a single point, is of particular importance in degraded ...
