UCF: Leading the Way Towards Oyster and Shoreline Restoration in Mosquito Lagoon

  • Summary

  • In our 20th episode of One Voice, we chat with Dr. Melinda Donnelly and Dr. Linda Walters, professors at the University of Central Florida who work in the Coastal and Estuarine Ecology Lab.

    We discuss how more than 15 years of funding has restored the oyster reefs and shorelines of the Canaveral National Seashore in the Mosquito Lagoon. Additionally, how the reduced use of plastic materials used in the restoration process has led to the development of new and improved restoration materials. We also discuss the Virtual Reality Education Project and other opportunities for volunteers to get involved.

    To learn more about Dr. Walters’ and Dr. Donnelly’s restoration work, visit Stabilizing the Shoreline One Oyster at a Time or the Coastal and Estuarine Ecology Lab FaceBook (Meta) page.
