Project Description Growth of filter-feeding bivalves (mussels, oysters, and clams) in nearshore environments is correlated to fluctuations in temperature, salinity, and food availability. This project utilizes historical data, data from the buoy network, sample data, and FVCOM model results as inputs for shellfish growth simulations using the ShellSIM model (Hawkins et al., 2012). This enables … Continue reading Develop Organism Growth Model of Secondary Production Utilizing Forcing Functions of Biophysical Data from Buoys, Sensors, Water Samples, and Transects
