Project

Biodiversiteit op mijnbouwplatforms

The aim of this study is to model the species distribution and inter-connectivity of reef communities on offshore structures in the North Sea, using different techniques: taxonomic inventories of the benthic fauna, DNA metabarcoding and video analysis, as well as an analysis of the genetic population structures of the mussel Mytilus edulis and crustacean Jassa herdmani.
