Creator:: Chen, Jessie, Haws, Maria, Fong, Quentin, and Leung, PingSun
Abstract:: While studies have long examined the economic viability of oyster industries along the Pacific and Atlantic coasts of the mainland United States, Hawai`i has had no industry to speak of in modern times.

Creator:: Sutherland, Sara
