Bissau, Guinee-Bissau

For my second master project I travelled to the country of Guinea Bissau to perform semi-structured interviews with local fishers, that were active within the Bijagos-Archipelago. I analysed and reported on the data to assess past population trends of fish and elasmobranchs within the Bijagos. The data was used to aid local conservation efforts for.

For this master research project I evaluate multiple sites in the Wadden Sea for possible future seagrass restoration projects. This is to be done by seeding two species of seagrass (Z. marina an Z. noltii) on potentially suitable locations. Survival and growth is to be evaluated at the end of the growing season to determine site suitably.
