Investigating the Limits of Native Oyster Recovery and Restoration [PDF]
, 2009 The project hypotheses were as follows: A. Oyster recruitment will be higher at inner bay sites than the outer bay sites and density of recruits will be positively associated with adult oyster density. B. Mortality due to predators will be greater in the inner bay than the outer bay sites. C.

Gradients In Success: The Impact of Wave Energy, Elevation and Predation on Oyster Reef Restoration
, 2023 The structure of coastal communities varies spatially and temporally in response to abiotic and biotic stressors. Local environmental conditions can be modified by the presence of a foundation species, whose dominant physical presence facilitates the ...

The curious case of eastern oyster Crassostrea virginica stock status in Apalachicola Bay, Florida
Ecology and Society, 2015 The Apalachicola Bay, Florida, eastern oyster ( Crassostrea virginica ) industry has annually produced about 10% of the U.S. oyster harvest. Today’s simple individual-operator, hand-tonging, small-vessel fishery is remarkably similar to the one that ...
