Abstract
Unraveling of the food web on a brakish tidal mudflat, the Groot Buitenschoor, including studies of population dynamics of Corophium volutator and Nereis diversicolor. The study will focus on the effects of contaminants on the reproduction and survival of the species and on the role of predation.

The former Institute for Nature Conservation was a partner in this project
