A Tale of Two Spills: Novel Science and Policy Implications of an Emerging New Oil Spill Model

TL;DR: The 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil release posed the challenges of two types of spill: a familiar spill characterized by buoyant oil, fouling and killing organisms at the sea surface and eventually grounding on and damaging sensitive shoreline habitats, and a novel deepwater spill involving many unknowns as mentioned in this paper.

Intertidal benthic resources of the Copper River Delta

TL;DR: The first description of the benthic community of intertidal flats of the Copper River Delta was reported in this paper, where three samplings were conducted in two areas on the delta: near the outflows of the Eyak River and Pete Dahl Slough.

Constraints to crassostrea ariakensis aquaculture: season and method of culture strongly influence success of grow-out

TL;DR: Results indicate that whereas at high salinity sites grow- out from a 27-mm deployment size is typically achieved within 5 mo, at medium salinity Sites >7 mo is required, and suitability of C. ariakensis for sale on the high-valued half-shell market may be contingent on completion of grow-out before summer Polydora spp.
Journal ArticleDOI

The bioeconomic feasibility of culturing triploid crassostrea ariakensis in north carolina

TL;DR: The potential value of the aquaculture fishery must now be considered in a broader context of the economic and ecosystem risks and benefits associated with introducing a nonnative oyster versus not introducing but instead restoring the native oyster.
