We have developed a green tech material that can be used to attract spat in the water column and allow them to settle and grow rapidly.
Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Oyster populations have been knocked back 90% worldwide. They are a keystone species for numerous fisheries around the world, they filter water, and prevent shoreline erosion. With pollution, storms, overbuilding on coasts, overfishing, etc. hitting all time highs, a green tech, economical solution is needed. These oysters are five months old, and thanks also to a unique geometry, the impact of predators is minimized. Help us save the oceans! We are a university group working with a nonprofit marine lab.
Español: Las poblaciones de ostras han disminuido en un 90% en todo el mundo. Son una especie clave para numerosas pesquerías en todo el mundo, filtran el agua y previenen la erosión de la costa. Con la contaminación, las tormentas, la construcción excesiva en las costas, la sobrepesca, etc., alcanzando máximos históricos, se necesita una solución económica y de tecnología verde. Estas ostras tienen cinco meses y, gracias también a una geometría única, se minimiza el impacto de los depredadores. ¡Ayúdanos a salvar los océanos! Somos un grupo universitario que trabaja con un laboratorio marino sin fines de lucro. |
