Seabird Diversity and Deterrence on Floating Oyster Cages

Aquaculture Research, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Off‐bottom oyster aquaculture involves the use of floating gear, which increases the surface area at the farm and provides roosting sites for seabirds. State authorities require oyster growers to have operational plans that outline mitigation or deterrent strategies to prevent interactions between birds and floating aquaculture gear.

Monitoring faunal responses to biodegradable oyster reef restoration materials with camera traps in a subtropical estuary

Restoration Ecology, Volume 33, Issue 8, November 2025.
Oyster reef restoration has become increasingly crucial due to global population declines. Intertidal oyster reefs provide essential foraging and loafing (resting) grounds to estuarine fauna. To reduce plastic pollution from traditional materials, biodegradable restoration materials have been introduced and are shown to support oyster recruitment ...

Observations of chick feeding rates and parental defensive responses to disturbance at nests in the critically endangered New Zealand fairy tern/tara iti (Sternula nereis davisae)

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 51, Issue 2, Page 175-185, June 2024.
ABSTRACT The New Zealand fairy tern/tara iti (Sternula nereis davisae; NZFT) is New Zealand’s most endangered bird, with approximately 40 individuals remaining. Due to previous poor breeding success, this species is on the brink of extinction. Nest failures occur because of adverse weather, predation, and potentially nest disturbance.
