  1. Modeling Food Assemblage Dynamics in Western Mississippi Sound Regarding Eastern Oyster (Crassostrea virginica) Larval Performance

    <p>Western Mississippi Sound is home to historical eastern oyster reefs that serve as an economically important yet decimated environmental habitat for coastal Mississippi (Pace et al. 2020, Pruett et al., 2024). Previous studies speculate upon the potential of food particle size as a food …

  2. Bacterioplankton Production in the Western Mississippi Sound and the Role of Photosynthetic Extracellular Release as a Driver of Bacterial Production

    … was investigated at two separate stations in the western Mississippi Sound (MS). One was an inshore site outside of the Bay of St. Louis and the other site was located in the transition zone (offshore) between the MS and Mississippi Bight, just south of Cat Island. Bacterial production (BP) was …

  3. Early Recruitment of <i>Crassostrea virginica</i> to Restored and Natural Oyster Reefs in the Western Mississippi Sound: Larval Supply and Post-Settlement Success

    … of early recruitment to oyster restoration in western Mississippi Sound. During the summer 2018 recruitment period, we quantified larval oyster supply and spat settlement at eight sites varying in region (inshore vs offshore) and background substrate (restored limestone, restored relic shell, …

  4. Quantifying Discard Mortality of Undersized and Ovigerous Crabs in the Gulf of Mexico Blue Crab Fishery

    … bycatch surveys across the Lake Pontchartrain–Mississippi Sound coastal system. Ovigerous crabs were most common at high salinities and temperatures, whereas undersized crab presence was inversely correlated with soak time, temperature, and the number of crabs per trap, and also varied among …
