Open WL Archief (OWA)

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

Mussels M. Edulis were reciprocally transplanted between 2 environments, the Tamar estuary (south-west England) and Swansea dock (south Wales). Physiological and cellular responses of native and transplanted mussels at each site were measured at the beginning (January, 1978) and after 7, 16 and 23 wk. Tissue concentrations of some metals (Cd, Cu, Fe, Pb, Zn) and hydrocarbons were determined. There were marked physiological differences between the 2 native populations but transplanted mussels acclimatized to their new environments within 2 mo. This suggested that the measured physiological differences (clearance, respiration and excretion rates, absorption efficiency, O:N and scope for growth) were largely determined by environmental rather than genotypic factors.
