Restoration of native oysters in a highly invaded estuary

Biological Conservation, 2016
Abstract Restoration of native species may be hampered by competition with non-native species. The outcomes of competition are often context-dependent, with one species dominating under some conditions but not others. Where non-natives differ from natives in their ability to tolerate stressful environmental conditions, restoration practitioners may ...

Experimental test of oyster restoration within eelgrass

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, 2016
Abstract Both seagrasses and oysters are foundation species valued for their wide range of ecosystem services, but their space competition sets a constraint on joint benefits. A reserve for native Olympia oysters (Ostrea lurida) was established in lower Hood Canal (Washington State, USA) more than a century ago but is now devoid of that species and ...

Oyster-Sponge Interactions and Bioerosion of Reef-Building Substrate Materials: Implications for Oyster Restoration

Journal of Shellfish Research, 2014
ABSTRACT Subtidal oyster (Crassostrea virginica) reefs constructed during in the mid 1990s in Pamlico Sound, North Carolina, initially supported high densities of oysters; however, beginning around 2007, oyster density subsequently declined. Concurrent with the decline in oyster density was an increase in the prevalence of boring sponges (Cliona) on ...
