A Radical Approach to Flooding in England: Give Land Back to the Sea – MK

When a huge tract of land on the Somerset coast was deliberately flooded, the project was slammed as “ridiculous” by a local lawmaker. But the results have been transformative.

What Scallops’ Many Eyes Can Teach Us About the Evolution of Vision Scallop eyes, which function similar to telescopes, are even more complex than scientists previously knew Viviane Callier May 6, 2019, Smithsonian Magazine, MK

The complexities of these mollusk eyes are still being unveiled. A new study published in Current Biology reveals that scallop eyes have pupils that dilate and contract in response to light, making them far more dynamic than previously believed. https://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/what-scallops-many-eyes-can-teach-us-about-evolution-vision-180972099/?utm_source=smithsoniandaily&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=editorial&spMailingID=49430515&spUserID=NzQwNDU4MDE4MDES1&spJobID=2641244472&spReportId=MjY0MTI0NDQ3MgS2 URLhttps://www.smithsonianmag.com/science-nature/what-scallops-many-eyes-can-teach-us-about-evolution-vision-180972099/?utm_source=smithsoniandaily&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=editorial&spMailingID=49430515&spUserID=NzQwNDU4MDE4MDES1&spJobID=2641244472&spReportId=MjY0MTI0NDQ3MgS2

Oyster rebound undercut by returning diseases, weak market

Check out this article about the Maryland Department of Natural Resources annual fall oyster survey: – Oysters have been enjoying a run of good news lately, suggesting that the Chesapeake Bay’s keystone species is on the rebound after decades of decline and stagnation. There are a couple of clouds on the horizon, though, that could derail that upward trajectory.

Barnegat Bay Oyster Restoration: Providing water quality and habitat improvements in Barnegat Bay Christine M. Thompson, Anna S. Pfeiffer-Herbert and Steve Evert School of Natural Sciences and Mathematics, Stockton University, Galloway NJ 08205 Stockton University Marine Field Station, Port Republic, NJ – MK

This report was produced in December 2021 dealing with the Tuckerton Reef. This study represents the first attempt at quantifying ecosystem services for a restoration site in Barnegat Bay. The Tuckerton Reef was created in 2016 as a research site to pilot the feasibility of restoring disease-resistant spat-on-shell oysters in the southern area of Barnegat Bay, NJ. This report further details the methods and results for each outcome of the study: Outcome 1: maintaining the reef at a target density for ecosystem services, Outcome 2: model water quality improvement in Barnegat Bay, Outcome 3: contribute water monitoring data for Barnegat Bay and Outcome 4: assess habitat enhancement.

SuperStorm Sandy Impact on Water Level in Barnegat Bay, Manahawkin Bay and Little Egg Harbor Bay – Superstorm Sandy-related Morphologic and Sedimentologic Changes in an Estuarine System: Barnegat Bay-Little Egg Harbor Estuary, New JerseyFlooding 3 – Filling in

In order to better understand and ultimately predict short-term morphologic and sedimentologic changes in coastal systems, a comprehensive research approach is required but is often difficult to achieve given the diversity of data required. This Paper combined these pre-storm data with similar post-storm data from the estuary and pre- and post-storm topographic data from the ocean shoreline of the barrier island to begin to understand the response of the barrier-estuary system.

ACOUSTIC IMPACTS OF OFFSHORE WIND ENERGY ON FISHERY RESOURCES 022622

Because their areas often overlap with essential fisheries habitats, there is a need to understand, mitigate, and manage offshore wind farm impactson fisheries and ecosystems. Activities during all phases of wind farm lifetimes produceunderwater sound, a concern because high noise levels and/or persistent anthropogenicnoise can impact marine life in many ways. Here, we review the current understandingof impacts of wind energy activities on fisheries resources, taking into account the variednoise conditions that occur from site survey to decommissioning.

Foundation Talk on Wind Farms Boosts Economic Benefits May 10, 2021 An hour-long online “Wind Power Talk” hosted by the Long Beach Island Foundation of the Arts and Sciences on April 24 and moderated by Science Committee Chair Rick Bushnell was too short to answer all the questions by the 70-plus participants who joined via Zoom and will result in a couple of more scheduled talks, Bushnell said. He began by explaining the talk was for information purposes and not to foster a debate, but to foster “a feeling of understanding.” “In many environmental decisions there are often a series of trade-offs,” said Bushnell.
