Population is relative to carrying capacity. Reducing the quality of the habitat by destroying the oyster reefs reduces the carrying capacity.

I wrote: [Your] statement ignores the plain fact that the ecosystem benefits of oyster reefs are not only related to the biomass of living oysters, but are also strongly related to the physical structure of oyster reefs providing valuable habitat for benthic invertebrates. Studies have shown that tonging for oysters preserves the reef structure and the habitat benefits nearly as well as not harvesting the oysters at all. In contrast dredging destroys the reefs and results in most of the calcified material getting buried in the muck and mud resulting in a much less dynamic benthic ecosystem. Further, all the silt stirred up negatively impacts light penetration and photosynthesis. It is much better to think about the ecosystem in terms of the food web. Everything about harvesting with tongs is better for the food web than dredging. |

Drinking a beer with my neighbor Tranh. He is an oysterman. Let him read this thread and he is shaking his head. Said most of you couldn't work a set of tongs for more than ten minutes. And some of you sound like the kind of people that put okra on their gumbo
