| Summary: | Two age-classes of Pacific oysters (Crassostrea gigas), i.e. young and adult, were used as sentinels to monitor mortality in the Baie des Veys (Normandy, France) from mid-April to October 2014. Oysters were deployed at 39 sites spread over a 37 km2 surface area inside and outside of the shellfish farms. Each site was visited 9 times (12-15 May, 13-16 June, 26-30 June, 12-18 July, 27-29 July, 11-14 August, 25-27 August, 9-12 September, 16 October 2014) during spring tides. For young oysters, cumulative mortality obtained in September is provided. For adult oysters, cumulative mortality is provided for 2 periods: from mid-April to mid-July (Period 1) and from mid-July to October (Period 2). A validated 3-D hydrodynamic Model for Applications at Regional Scale (MARS-3D) coupled with a biogeochemical model (ECOMARS-3D) was used to generate high frequency data of seawater temperature, salinity, chlorophyll a concentration (derived from phytoplankton) and hydrodynamic connectivity to oyster farms and to the mouths ... |
