Succesful restoration of oyster reefs and mussel banks by using BESE-elements
BESE-elements reduce wave heights up to 60%, compared to bare tidal flats, despite being placed in a highly exposed area
Ben Gilby et al. measured the effects of a 1.5 ha shellfish reef restoration site on fish assemblages in Pumicestone Passage in eastern Australia.
Dutch researchers tested BESE-elements to see whether a state shift could be accomplished by mimicking buoyant peat.
