|Summary=An Oyster is an ecosystem engineer which is able to change waves, currents and sedimentation patterns in their vicinity. Nowadays we want to use these abilities in our advantage by building artificial oyster reefs. This innovative solution can be used not only to protect dikes against wave action but also stabilize sand on sand banks. |

Recently 4 new oyster reefs were constructed at the “Oesterdam safety-buffer project” and it is going to be your task to monitor not only the reef development but also their effects in the morphology of their surroundings. For that you will evaluate the existing data and be responsible to collect new data. You will also compare your results with similar researches. As the oyster reef Technology is still in the beginning your results/work can be very important for improving the design of artificial oyster reefs. |
