Bonamia-free flat oyster (Ostrea edulis L.) seed for restoration projects: non-destructive screening of broodstock, hatchery production and test for Bonamia-tolerance [PDF]

open access: yesAquatic Living Resources, 2023
Native (flat) oyster (Ostrea edulis) beds, once a major component of the North Sea, largely disappeared from the region in the late 19th century. Flat oyster restoration is taking place at a number of locations in the North Sea. When flat oyster beds are

Northern Europe’s suitability for offshore European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) habitat restoration based on population dynamics

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
IntroductionEuropean and member state legislation encourage the sustainable development of offshore environments, with the restoration or creation of flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) habitats offering potential solutions to enhance biodiversity and provide ...

Flat oyster fishery management during a time with fluctuating population size [PDF]

open access: yesAquatic Living Resources, 2019
Wild populations of the native European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) are nowadays rare. Worldwide, flat oyster populations have declined due to overexploitation, diseases and pollution. Yet, in the Limfjorden, Denmark, a small but persistent population of

Hatchery seed production of flat oysters from the Mar Menor lagoon

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
The Mar Menor lagoon (SE Spain) suffers a severe eutrophication process aggravated since the collapse of the lagoon in 2016. Together with it, the populations of the flat oyster Ostrea edulis have been decimated in the lagoon, but also in the European ...

Performance of European oysters (Ostrea edulis L.) in the Dutch North Sea, across five restoration pilots

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
IntroductionThe European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) is a biogenic reef former, internationally recognised as threatened and declining in the NE Atlantic by OSPAR and one of the focal species in nature inclusive designs in offshore windfarms in The ...

The potential impact of human interventions at different scales in offshore wind farms to promote flat oyster (Ostrea edulis) reef development in the southern North Sea

open access: yesAquatic Living Resources, 2023
Incorporation of ecology and ecosystem services into marine infrastructural developments has gained interest over the last decades. Growing attention is given to combine the massive roll-out of offshore wind farms in the North Sea with reinstating the ...

Effects of food ration, water flow rate and bacteriological levels of broodstock on the reproductive conditioning of the European flat oyster (Ostrea edulis, Linnaeus 1758)

open access: yesAquaculture Reports, 2020
The natural production of the native flat oyster Ostrea edulis and the production of seed in hatcheries are insufficient to meet demand. Several projects have recently been developed to optimise flat oyster production and to establish a reliable protocol

The late Holocene demise of a sublittoral oyster bed in the North Sea.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
A fossil oyster bed (Ostrea edulis) was recently encountered offshore Helgoland (German Bight). Oysters are important filter feeders in marine environments and their habitat structure supports a large associated biodiversity.

Experimental estimation of ladder dredge efficiency for capture of European flat oysters over mixed sediment

open access: yesAquatic Living Resources, 2023
Fishing gear-based landings or survey methods are often used to make assessments of species stock abundance. In order to convert catch into abundance values, estimates or assumptions are made on the catch efficiency of the gear-based method.
