Sponges survive and develop infaunal snapping shrimp communities when transplanted immediately after clonal propagation: implications for restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, Volume 34, Issue 5, July 2026.
Abstract Introduction Sponges historically dominated the heterotrophic biomass of Florida Bay's hard‐bottom habitat, providing crucial ecosystem services including shelter for soniferous shrimp that contribute to the marine soundscape. The loss of the sponge communities has inspired restoration efforts using in‐water nurseries for vegetative ...
