Low-inflow estuaries are highly variable and productive habitats. Organisms in these systems must cope with constantly changing conditions. This study investigates the continuous response of oysters to environmental stimuli in a small, low-inflow, estuary, Los Peñasquitos Lagoon (LPL), in San Diego, California, USA. The oysters were placed on a mooring at near-surface and near-bottom locations and instrumented with noninvasive...

Effective conservation practice requires decisions based on reliable and relevant evidence, but significant gaps in the evidence base exist. Incorporating well‐designed tests of the effectiveness of interventions for biodiversity in conservation projects is one of the best ways to scale up the rate of evidence generation. Funders of conservation projects are uniquely positioned to support and incentivize such tests as part of...
