These slides summarize a webinar given by Cory Riley of the Great Bay Reserve on March 27, 2018 about her 2015 Integrated Assessment on vegetated buffer use in New Hampshire.

A suite of information and decision-support tools for landowners, communities, and policymakers interested in leveraging the benefits of buffers is now available thanks to a two-year effort to collect and integrate information about buffer protection and management.

This 2017 article appeared in the journal Ecology, and presents findings from a study assessing the individual and synergistic effects of air temperature and salinity on Olympia oyster mortality across temporal patterns that accurately reflect the natural environment.

Over $2.6 million will be awarded to six projects by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ’s National Estuarine Research Reserve System Science Collaborative that engage research efforts on 12 reserves across the nation.

Nearly $400,000 will be awarded by NOAA ’s National Estuarine Research Reserve System Science Collaborative, managed by University of Michigan Water Center, to four projects involving 15 reserve sites across the nation.

NOAA ’s National Estuarine Research Reserve System Science Collaborative, managed by University of Michigan Water Center, is pleased to announce the outcome of the 2017 Science Transfer competition.

This 2016 journal article was published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B. The study highlights how extreme precipitation events in 2011 may have contributed to near 100% mass mortality of wild oysters in northern San Francisco Bay.

This lesson plan helps teachers and students understand the concept of blue carbon and the impacts of sea level rise on salt marshes.

This journal article was published in Estuaries and Coasts in 2016, and decribes a study of how seasonal changes in temperature and salinity impact larval Olympia oyster recruitment across a range of sites and time intervals.
