... This ability to retain nitrogen also has the potential to mitigate eutrophication, defined by Nixon
(1995) as an increase in the rate of supply of organic matter to an ecosystem that is related to
human activities, thereby improving water quality (Ostroumov 2005; Coen et al. ...

Abstract: The Atlantic ribbed mussel, Geukensia demissa, is found in salt marshes along the
North American Atlantic Coast. As a first step to study the possibility of future cultivation and
harvest of ribbed mussels for nutrient removal from eutrophic urban environments, the ...

NOAA is an agency that enriches life through science. Our reach goes from the surface of the sun to the depths of the ocean floor as we work to keep citizens informed of the changing environment around them.
From daily weather forecasts, severe storm warnings and climate monitoring to fisheries management, coastal restoration and supporting marine commerce, NOAA’s products and services support economic vitality and affect more than one-third of America’s gross domestic product. NOAA’s dedicated scientists use cutting-edge research and high-tech instrumentation to provide citizens, planners, emergency managers and other decision makers with reliable information they need when they need it.
NOAA's roots date back to 1807, when the Nation’s first scientific agency, the Survey of the Coast, was established. Since then, NOAA has evolved to meet the needs of a changing country. NOAA maintains a presence in every state and has emerged as an international leader on scientific and environmental matters.
NOAA’s mission touches the lives of every American and we are proud of our role in protecting life and property and conserving and protecting natural resources. I hope you will explore NOAA and how our products and services can enrich your own life.
