	note = {In the ocean, environmental conditions such as water temperature or wave height can affect reproduction and survival success of organisms across broad regions.  Separate populations can experience similar rates of recruitment success or failure while hundreds of miles apart.  While this recruitment synchrony is well-known among marine species from fishes to kelp to barnacles, it is not well documented in estuarine species, where the scale of environmental conditions is much smaller.  In this paper, the authors examine recruitment synchrony in the native Olympia oyster in eight bays on the Pacific Coast.  Is there evidence of recruitment synchrony among estuaries on the Pacific Coast?  Within given estuaries, is there evidence of recruitment synchrony at different sites?  What are predictors of recruitment failure?  Are there ways to buffer against recruitment failure?  The authors address all these questions.},
