New milestone book documents changes in the south Florida marine ecosystem - Tropical connections: South Florida's marine environment
Staff quoted: Bill Dennison
CAMBRIDGE, MD (July 25, 2012)—If you live, vacation, boat, swim, snorkel, bird watch, or eat shellfish in south Florida, you are "connected" to the south Florida marine habitats. A new book, Tropical Connections: South Florida's marine environment, documents the dramatic changes in south Florida's marine ecosystem over the last few decades. Published by IAN Press, it is the culmination of an unprecedented effort to assemble a summary of the status and threats to south Florida marine habitats, a unique environment of the United States that is under severe pressure because of activities related to human development.

Editorial: Science, nature helping oysters
Staff quoted: UMCES
Pity the poor Chesapeake Bay oyster. His habitat is being fouled and diminished, and because of that, the oyster is fewer in number. And in a typical downward spiral, as the oyster population is decreased, the demise of the habitat is hastened, because the oyster filters the waters in which it lives. With fewer oysters, less filtration takes place. And as pollutants and sediment increase, fewer oysters survive.
