Seasonal Feeding Behavior of Aquaculture Eastern Oysters (Crassostrea virginica) in the Mid-Atlantic
Abstract Crassostrea virginica ) is a commercially important aquaculture species and food resource along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts of the USA. In addition to its economic value, oyster aquaculture provides ecological value such as water quality improvement. Oyster filtration is highly variable as filtration behavior is influenced by environmental conditions, oyster size, and oyster energetic demands. However, average rates generated in laboratory experiments are often used to estimate the ecological impact of oyster filtration, and there is a need for field-based, farm-specific estimates of filtration that account for this variation. In this study, field experiments were conducted between September 2020 and September 2021 to estimate seasonal oyster filtration physiology at oyster farms in three different bays in the Mid-Atlantic (Barnegat Bay and Delaware Bay in New Jersey and Rehoboth Bay in Delaware). The physiological activity of oysters at each farm varied such that oysters at Barnegat Bay were the most active and oysters at Rehoboth Bay were the least active. Seasonal physiological trends were observed such that filtration behavior generally increased in warmer months. An increase in physiological activity across all farms was associated with an increase in salinity and temperature, but physiological activity at each farm was associated with a different suite of environmental variables including total particulate matter and the organic content of seston. This study provides a robust dataset which can be incorporated into models estimating ecological filtration rates in the Mid-Atlantic and adds to the growing body of evidence supporting bivalve aquaculture as a nutrient reduction strategy.
