Goal

Technique: Hatchery rearing of native oysters (and seeding) In experimental enhancement plots, Olympia oysters were outplanted at low density, which successfully maintained eelgrass density and production. One method was used in 2013 (seeded cultch, 8% cover) and two additional methods in 2015 (anchored cultch and single oysters, the latter at 4% cover). Here: survival after one year Spatial extent 700 ha as reported. Reported project duration 2,0 year(s). Average survival 1,0% as reported.
