Effect of inundation time on oyster spat settlement and do these effect in settlement stage affect oyster performance during later culture stages?

Project summary

The focus will be on the amount of spat settled, on the growth and on the survival of mussel spat on spat collectors as a function of inundation time. After collecting the spat from the oyster spat collectors we want to test how inundation time in the settlement stage affects the performance of the oysters in baskets in the off-bottom oyster culture at the same inundation time. Research type: desk study, sampling & experiments (HZ, Vlissingen) Research level: minor/internship (BSc.) Perquisite: preferably affinity with biology, analytical skills, driving license
