Goal
Technique: Hatchery rearing of native oysters (and seeding) Juvenile oysters were transplanted during summer 2003. Therefore, 2,000 juvenile oysters (8 mm in shell height) were obtained from shellfish hatchery. These oysters were separated into two groups of 1,000. Each group was deployed at the field sites in three 4.8-mm mesh bags (107 cm × 61 cm × 8 cm) at an approximate density of 333 bag-1 on 2 July 2003. The bags were attached to two cinderblocks and were kept directly No spatial extent reported. Reported project duration 0,3 year(s). Average survival 85,4% as reported.
