There's a pretty cool project taking place around Scotland where researchers are deploying oysters into coastal waters as a form of absorbing carbon too. I know that's linked to a seagrass project at the same time, so sorry if it's yours and I'm teaching granny to suck eggs!
The sea grass and the oysters are part of the same project S. Oysters were historically the poor man’s protein so when North Edinburgh industrialised and the population exploded you would see hundreds of folk out collecting the oysters, the Forth was one of the richest beds in the world, you could walk half way across on their backs! That wouldn’t last long of course and pollution didn’t help. The project involves sowing the sea grass from seeds collected in Orkney. All very cool.
