  "projectDescription": "This primary objective of this research project was to assess the potential variance in fisheries related food webs, nutrient cycling and biogeochemistry in restored/oiled, oiled/unrestored,  and reference marshes. The project culminated in these publications:Bergen, A., C. Alderson, R. Bergfors, C.Aquila, and M.A. Matsil. 2000.  Restoration of a Spartina alterniflora Salt Marsh Following a Fuel Oil Spill, New York City, NY. Wetlands Ecology and Management 8:185-195.Bergen, A., M. Levandowsky, T. Gorrell, and C. Alderson.  1996. Restoration of Heavily Oiled Salt Marsh using Spartina alterniflora Seedlings and Transplants: Effects on Petroleum Hydrocarbon Levels and Soil Microflora. Pages 33-45 in E.J. Calbrese, P.T. Kostecki and M. Bonazountas, editors. Contaminated Soils Volume 1, Amherst Mass.Vitaliano, JJ., RN Reid, AB Frame, DB Packer, LA Arlen, JN Sacco.  2002. Comparison of benthic invertebrate assemblages at Spartina alterniflora marshes reestablished after an oil spill and existing marshes in the Arthur Kill (NY/NJ).
