TL;DR: In this paper, the economic value of oyster reef services, excluding oyster harvesting, is estimated to be between $5500 and $99,000 per hectare per year and reefs recover their median restoration costs in 2-14 years.
Journal ArticleDOI
Scientific evidence supports a ban on microbeads
Chelsea M. Rochman,Chelsea M. Rochman,Sara M. Kross,Sara M. Kross,Jonathan B. Armstrong,Jonathan B. Armstrong,Michael T. Bogan,Michael T. Bogan,Emily S. Darling,Emily S. Darling,Stephanie J. Green,Stephanie J. Green,Ashley R. Smyth,Ashley R. Smyth,Diogo Veríssimo,Diogo Veríssimo +15 more
TL;DR: This work aims to demonstrate the efforts towards in-situ applicability of EMMARM, which aims to provide real-time information about the physical and emotional impacts of infectious disease on fish and wildlife populations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Habitat-specific distinctions in estuarine denitrification affect both ecosystem function and services
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used membrane inlet mass spectrometry to measure changes in N2 flux (referred to here as denitrification) in multiple shallow-water estuarine habitats through an annual cycle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Use of oysters to mitigate eutrophication in coastal waters
M. Lisa Kellogg,Ashley R. Smyth,Mark W. Luckenbach,Ruth H. Carmichael,Bonnie L. Brown,Jeffrey C. Cornwell,Michael F. Piehler,Michael S. Owens,D. Joseph Dalrymple,Colleen B. Higgins +9 more
TL;DR: It is found that oysters can have effects on water quality that vary by orders of magnitude among sites, seasons, and growing condition, and the extent to which relationships between N removal and environmental and/or growing conditions can be generalized is generalized.
Journal ArticleDOI
Are coastal habitats important nurseries? A meta‐analysis
Jonathan S. Lefcheck,Jonathan S. Lefcheck,Jonathan S. Lefcheck,Brent B. Hughes,Andrew J. Johnson,Bruce W. Pfirrmann,Bruce W. Pfirrmann,Douglas B. Rasher,Ashley R. Smyth,Ashley R. Smyth,Bethany L. Williams,Michael W. Beck,Robert J. Orth +12 more
TL;DR: Almost all structured habitats significantly enhanced juvenile density—and in some cases growth and survival—relative to unstructured habitats, and underwater grasses and mangroves also promoted juvenile density and growth beyond what was observed in other structured habitats.
