Project Description The project aims to determine if sediment CaCO3 saturation state is a recruitment cue for settling marine bivalves employing Mya arenaria as a model species. Earlier work (on hard clams Mercenaria mercenaria) has shown sediment pH is correlated with numbers of settling bivalves, and there is an ‘active’ process of site selection where … Continue reading Laboratory and Field Experiments Looking at Sediment Buffering with CaCO3 to Enhance Recruitment of Mya arenaria
