Some more coverage on our work on biodiversity on restored oyster reefs: "Reefs in no-take reserves host more oysters, macroparasites, and macrofauna than harvested reefs across an estuarine salinity gradient" - open access @MEPS_IR - int-res.com/abstracts/meps/v…
New discovery from our @sercfisheries lab and @UMBC! Oyster sanctuaries host higher numbers of #oysters and other marine animals, like blue crabs & rockfish—and two parasites, the boring sponge & mud blister worm. Here's why that may be a good thing: serc.si.edu/media/press-rele…
Check out our new paper @MEPS_IR "Reefs in no-take reserves host more oysters, macroparasites, and macrofauna than harvested reefs across an estuarine salinity gradient" - PLUS a nice press release from @SERCfisheries colleagues
🌟#Publication Alert! 🌟
Check out our new paper on #oysters in @MEPS_IR! Oyster reefs that have been restored or deemed a sanctuary are showing higher abundance and diversity of species calling it home. #HealthyOysterGoals #ChesBay
