This guide, developed as part of a 2013 Collaborative Research project, includes simple projects that homeowners can undertake to reduce pollution from their yards.

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 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 2013 Collaborative Research project in which a diverse team collaborated to reduce the volume of polluted stormwater runoff in southeast coastal North Carolina.

This project overview describes a 2013 project that created an online portal for scientists and fisheries managers to share and use data on larval fish recruitment and environmental variables.

This document summarizes a tool developed by the NERRS to evaluate and compare the ability of tidal marshes to thrive as sea level rises.

This project overview describes a 2016-2020 Collaborative Research project that conducted a comprehensive, collaboratively-designed assessment of stormwater impacts on the Rachel Carson component of the North Carolina National Estuarine Research Reserve.

This project overview describes a 2018 Science Transfer project where 13 reserves are sharing their experiences in managing conflict during collaborative research projects and synthesizing lessons learned.

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