I always get a little bit nervous when the Chincoteague ponies come close to check on us while we are checking on our oyster restoration projects. Still, what a unique day in the life for a marine scientist!

Working with the local community alongside a smart combination of both sanctuary and harvest areas for oysters has had impressive impacts cleaning up the Lynnhaven. Keep up the good work!

Why saving seagrass meadows could help save the world’s coastlines

We had uncommon freezes the past two winters here in Virginia. So far our Nature Conservancy scientists are seeing low mortality rates. Interestingly, the ice appears to have moved many clusters of oysters and dropped them on the bottom nearby. Ice can actually spread our reefs horizontally!

Last Chesapeake Bay sunset before daylight savings time kicks in. This early taste of spring has me excited for oyster and eelgrass field season.

When someone says „Scientists do not want you to know“ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

Kudos to Hampton University for training students to help our coastal communities adapt gracefully to erosion and rising seas!

Had a great day on the water exploring restored oyster reefs and seagrass meadows with the VCR LTER and @science.nature.org on a field trip Sunday to kick off @benthicsmeeting.bsky.social this week!
