This project overview describes a 2017 Collaborative Research project that tested the effectiveness of thin-layer sediment placement as a marsh adaptation strategy.

This project overview describes a 2010 Collaborative Research project in which a team led by South Slough Reserve developed a science-based plan to restore Olympia oysters to Oregon's coast.

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.
