The Oyster Restoration Research Project

The Oyster Restoration Research Project focuses on restoring oyster populations and habitats along coastlines, as oysters play a vital role in maintaining healthy marine ecosystems. They filter water, improve water quality, and provide habitat for various marine species. The project involves scientific research to understand the best methods for growing and reintroducing oysters into their natural environments. By enhancing their numbers, the initiative aims to boost biodiversity, support fisheries, and protect coastlines from erosion, ultimately contributing to healthier oceans and resilient coastal communities.
