Description

The gulf coast oyster industry faces numerous challenges including increased exposure to anthropogenic pollution, climate change, ocean acidification, harmful algal blooms, predation, disease outbreaks, and low salinity events. This has prompted triple n oysters to culture oysters in a closed system away from the coast of louisiana. This move has several potential benefits including the production of oyster seed in a controlled environment where temperature, salinity, feed, and nutrients can be optimized for a reliable production of seed for the oyster industry. These inland operations will also be resilient in the face of tropical storms and hurricanes.
