Ask a Barnegat Bay Scientist: Tuckerton Oyster Reef

For the past four years, Stockton University has worked with the Barnegat Bay Partnership, Jetty Rock Foundation, Long Beach Township and Parson’s Mariculture to plant oysters on the Tuckerton Reef, a four-acre site in lower Barnegat Bay. Dr. Christine Thompson, an Assistant Professor of Marine Science at Stockton, will speak about this valuable habitat and how this project “plants” oysters on the bay bottom and monitors their success and habitat for other species. Learn more about this project here.
