In the new issue<\/a> of <\/em>Coastwatch magazine, readers will find the following:\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Is North Carolina poised to become the “Napa Valley” of oysters? Katie Mosher explores<\/a> how aquaculture is on the rise in the state \u2014 and how a North Carolina Sea Grant partnership with the University of North Carolina Wilmington, Carteret Community College and shellfish growers aims to improve oyster production through applied research.<\/p>\n

An excerpt from Bland Simpson’s Two Captains from Carolina<\/em>, about two accomplished Civl War-era mariners, highlights a pivotal moment for an accomplished African American mariner named Moses Grandy. An accompanying Q&A with the author reveals how he shaped his protagonists’ interweaving tales.<\/p>\n

If you’ve never seen menhaden on a seafood menu, you’re not alone. The bony fish is typically processed for use in products such as fishmeal and nutritional supplements. Sea Grant coastal economics specialist Jane Harrison describes<\/a> her research into the socioeconomic impact of the Atlantic menhaden fishery on East Coast states.<\/p>\n

The synthetic chemical GenX has received a lot of news and public attention lately. Julie Leibach takes a broader look<\/a> at how the story of GenX represents a greater challenge facing public and environmental health.<\/p>\n

Can’t wait till summer for a coastal getaway? Danielle Constantini recommends<\/a> some of the best off-season attractions for nature lovers, history buffs and shopping fanatics alike.<\/p>\n

Recently retired Mariner’s Menu<\/em> blogger, Vanda Lewis, shares some of her favorite seafood recipes. Drawing from Joyce Taylor’s Mariner’s Menu: 30 Years of Fresh Seafood Ideas<\/em>, Lewis shares recipes for Italian fish stew, flaked fish casserole au gratin, and snapper fillets saut\u00e9ed with mushrooms, all of whose flavors evoke Down East.<\/p>\n

Katie Mosher also describes the new Coastal Landscapes Initiative, a new multi-partner project to enhance community and private landscapes through thoughtful plantings and consumer outreach.<\/p>\n

It’s hoi toide on the saind soide!<\/em> Marisa Incremona talks to Ocracoke islanders and sociolinguist Walt Wolfram about the Ocracoke brogue, exploring its history and evolution over the generations.<\/p>\n

Cynthia Sharpe, a former Sea Grant communications intern with an English degree from NC State University, has the final word with her poem Of the Essence, a personal reflection on time.<\/p>\n
