Trevyn Toone

Trevyn Toone is a Postdoctoral Research Scholar in the Department of Marine, Earth, and Atmospheric Sciences at NC State University. Their work focuses on marine restoration ecology, particularly investigating mussel population dynamics and ecosystem recovery strategies. Current affiliations include the College of Sciences and the Department of Marine, Earth, and Atmospheric Sciences located at Jordan Hall 3139 on the NC State campus.

Research interests include shellfish restoration techniques, environmental impact assessments, and biodiversity monitoring in coastal ecosystems. Key areas of exploration involve intertidal mussel survival under climate stressors, innovative restoration methods like macroalgae-assisted recruitment, and socio-cultural valuation of marine species through business naming patterns.

Recent studies highlight challenges in mussel reef recovery, including temperature limits, habitat suitability, and heavy metal pollution effects. Their work bridges ecological science with community engagement, as seen in pilot studies fostering collaboration between researchers and local communities. Publications emphasize both technical restoration methodologies and inclusive science policy recommendations for LGBTQ+ researchers.
