Clam Restoration in the IRL

In our 13th episode, we’re diving into IRL clam restoration and the key efforts to preserve them. 

Clams may seem like simple creatures, but they play crucial roles in maintaining the health of our coastal environments. From filtering and improving water quality to providing habitat and food for marine life, clams truly multitask along Florida’s shores. 

In this episode, we chat with Dr. Todd Osborne from the University of Florida Whitney Lab and explore the science behind clam restoration, the challenges these vital bivalves face and innovative projects aimed at bringing them back from the brink.
