Description

An experiment was conducted in the framework of the ECOFLAT-project. ECOFLAT aims at studying the processes which are important for the carbon and nutrient cycling within a tidal flat ecosystem.

Scope

Themes:

Coastal studies (e.g. shores, estuaries), Water composition, Water composition > Nutrients

Keywords:

Marine/Coastal, Brackish water, Carbon 13, Carbon cycle, Tidal flats, ANE, Netherlands, Westerschelde, Molenplaat

Geographical coverage
