This Excel spreadsheet, developed by a 2011 Collaborative Research project team, allows you to evaluate the appropriateness of one or more sites for Olympia oyster restoration.

This report discusses environmental conditions and sites that support sustainable Olympia oyster populations in central California.

Oysters are the tiny superheroes of coastal environments. They enhance water quality, create habitat, and protect shorelines from storms and erosion. Along the Pacific Coast, native oysters are in decline, due in part to sedimentation, inadequate protection, and unsustainable harvests.

This project overview describes a 2012 Collaborative Research project that engaged community volunteers to restore vital oyster reefs in South Carolina.

This project overview describes a 2011 Collaborative Research project that examined the relationship between salt marshes, climate change, and nitrogen pollution and developed tools to leverage the “blue carbon ” stored in wetlands to achieve broader management goals.

This project overview describes a 2012 Collaborative Research project that developed a decision-making framework and tools to guide coastal wetland recovery and management in Southern California.

This project overview describes a 2011 Collaborative Research project that developed science-based planning tools that decision-makers along the Pacific Coast can use to better site oyster restoration projects.

This project overview describes a 2012 Collaborative Research project that assessed the ability and cost-effectiveness of marsh restoration designs to remove nitrogen pollution from stormwater runoff.

This project overview describes a 2013 Collaborative Research project in which an array of partners created a watershed-scale wetland conservation plan in Wisconsin's Douglas County.

This dissertation was written by PhD student working at Hudson River Reserve on a project that assessed the buffering services of a coastal marsh in New York.
