New York Harbor Oyster Restoration Model

A collaborative effort to study and optimize remediation efforts in the harbor.

Who we are

We are a collaboration across universities and non-profit organizations to rebuild the health and resilience of the New York Harbor ecosystem. We study the impacts of restoration to provide optimal strategies for natural filtration of waters by considering targeted placement of oyster reefs.

Our work provides resource managers with data and educators tools for outreach and instruction through our partnership with the Billion Oyster Project.
