Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
In 1991 and 1992 the temporal development of potentially toxic phytoplankton was studied at an offshore mooring station in the North Sea. The water column at this station is thermally stratified from spring to autumn and occasionally Alexandrium cf. tamarense, Dinophysis spp. and Gyrodinium aureolum had been found. Because there is no information on the actual toxicity of these species in this area, mussels (Mytilus edulis) were moored in baskets in the bottom mixed layer in both years. Animals were retrieved at intervals of 2-4 weeks, and analysed for PSP- (Alexandrium spp.) and DSP- (Dinophysis spp.) toxicity, and ichthyotoxic effects (G. aureolum). Discrete samples for chemical and phytoplankton analyses were taken at a comparable time scale. In 1991, shell growth stopped, and condition indices declined when G. aureolum concentrations reached 105 l-1. DSP toxicity was detected at Dinophysis spp. concentrations less than or equal to 102 l-1. Alexandrium spp. were rare, and PSP toxins were not detected. In 1992 no toxic effects were observed. The use of M. edulis as a biomonitor is discussed. |
