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 |
This is the first review report on the Kenyan- Belgian Project in Marine Ecology (KBP). It explains our approach and methodology: the linkage between equipment, education and research. Interaction between fundamental and applied research. Real co-operation between Kenyan and Belgian Scientists. We are always accessible to remarks and advices and hope to be able to continue. The aim of the project was to develop a program on Marine Ecology and the Management of the Coastal Zone (living and non-living resources). We started the inventory and descriptions of the different Marine biotopes and their trophic levels. This fundamental research guided us to initiate applied research: we started a small-scale oyster culture to prevent the loss of the high primary production of the mangrove creeks. By doing so we provided work for the local population and used only local materials for the building of the rafts. Both, the fundamental and the applied research must go on with the present project as backbone. Other, subprograms, fitting in the framework of the KBP, will be added. A common project between Kenyan and Belgian Universities will be worked out and submitted to the EEC, on specific mangrove research. The Belgian experts will submit an interuniversity program for fundamental research to the National Science Foundation. And in collaboration with the KMFRI and the Kenyan and Belgian Universities, we will organize a Regional Course on Marine Biology, with the support of UNESCO and UNEP. In this way, we will cover most of the aspects of Marine Ecology, needed for the Management of the Coastal Zone. |
