Farming the Edge of the Sea; the Sustainable Development of Dutch Mussel Fishery
Farming the Edge of the Sea The Sustainable Development of Dutch Mussel Fishery1 Rob van Ginkel University of Amsterdam ABSTRACTThroughout the world, there are myriad examples of abuse, ov-qexploitation, or even depletion of living marine resources. Instances of successful fisheries management and sustainable use are rare. One such example is the Dutch mussel fishing and farming indus- try. During well defined periods in spring and autumn, the mussel fishers are allowed to catch young mussels, which they plant on plots rented from the state. This system has been in opera- tion since the 1860s. The present paper explores the history of the mussel industry, points out the ecological, economic and social consequences of privatization of the marine com- mons, describes successive types of management regimes and discusses some of the merits and demerits of privatization. / Introduction I There are numerous examples of "tragedies of the commons" (Hardin 1968) which menace fish stocks and fishing industries in many parts of the world. Ma- rine biologists and economists widely accept that resource abuse is inevitable under a system of common property tenure. They point out that fishers who enjoy unrestricted access to fishing grounds seek to maximize their profits in the short run. Fishing, they argue, is a zero-sum game in which one man's gain is another's loss (cf., e.g., Anderson 1976; Gordon 1954; Pontecorvo 1967; Scott 1955). The pessimistic message of the theorem is that "[rluin is the destination toward which all men rush, each pursuing his own best interest in a society that believes in the freedom of the commons" (Hardin 1968:1244).

BattelleIMarine Research Laboratory, 439 West Sequim Bay Road, Sequim. Washington 98382, USA National Marine Fisheries Service. Northeast Fisheries Center, Oxford, Maryland 21654, USA ABSTRACT: The protozoan blood-cell parasite Bonamia ostreae of the European flat oyster Ostrea edulis has caused extens~ven~ortahties in France, the United Kingdom, The Netherlands, Spain, and Denmark. The discovery of the disease in 4 oyster populations in North America is the flrst documenta- tion of the disease outside Europe. Ultrastructure of the parasite, inflammatory lesions in the affected oysters, and transmissibility patterns of the disease demonstrate the identity of the disease in Europe and North America. Current studies and reconstruction of historical records trace the origin of the disease to California (USA) and possibly an Atlantic North American site, followed by its spread within North America and to Europe, where it was first described in detail and recognized as a significant cause of oyster mortalities.

Łspatial and Temporal Variability in Growth and Reproduction of the Japanese Cupped Oyster Crassostrea Gigas (Thunberg, 1793)
This paper not to be cited without prior reference to the authors International Council for the CM 2004/K:22 Exploitation of the Sea Spatial and temporal variability in growth and reproduction of the Japanese cupped oyster Crassostrea gigas (Thunberg, 1793): are they adapting to northern European waters? Joana F.M.F. Cardoso1, Denis Langlet2, José F. Loff1, Ana R. Martins1, Johannes. IJ. Witte1 and Henk W. van der Veer1 1Royal Netherlands Institute for Sea Research, P.O. Box 59, 1790 AB Den Burg Texel, The Netherlands 2Section de Pétrographie-Minéralogie-Géochimie, Musée Royal de l'Afrique Centrale, MRAC- Tervuren, Leuvensesteenweg 13, B3080 Tervuren, Belgium Abstract The Japanese cupped oyster, Crassostrea gigas, is native to Japan and was introduced in Europe for commercial purposes in the early 1960’s. In France and in the south of the Netherlands, this species is now a very important cultured species. Initially, it was thought that the cold northern waters of the Netherlands would restrain the species’ reproduction and settlement but surprisingly C. gigas is reproducing and expanding in several estuaries, and has already been seen in northern Germany. This suggests that over time eco-physiological changes have occurred, indicating either phenotypic and/or genotypic plasticity. In order to understand how this species was able to invade northern habitats, the energy flow over growth and reproduction in C. gigas was studied along a latitudinal gradient from La Rochelle, France to Eastern Scheldt and Wadden Sea in the Netherlands. Overall, the French population had a lower body condition than the two Dutch populations had. Animals from the north of the Netherlands (Wadden Sea) showed the highest gonad mass ratio, although the smallest egg size.

The Biblebelt is a region without institutional borders. It finds its origin in the sixteenth century as a result of the Reformation which started as movement to change the Roman-Catholic Church. The Netherlands had an open attitude towards new (religious) influences as a result of the focus on trade. Because of that the Netherlands became one of the protestant bastions in a couple of centuries as the Reformation started in 1517. This thesis investigates the historical processes which shaped the Biblebelt-region, where the protestant religion has been of great importance and still is nowadays. The purpose of this thesis is to find out how the Biblebelt-region is constructed through historical and religious processes and how its status maintains in present days. A theoretical overview makes clear which historical and religious processes have been of importance. Further on, the investigation switches towards an investigation of articles in popular media on how they create images of the Biblebelt and the influences of different processes as stereotyping, framing, distance decay on the images and the transporting of the images etc.

BACHELOR THESIS DELTA MANAGEMENT Development of a Community Flood Resilience Assessment Tool
BACHELOR THESIS DELTA MANAGEMENT Development of a Community Flood Resilience Assessment Tool IZHAR VAN EENENNAAM June 2017 Bachelor Thesis Delta Management Development of a Community Flood Resilience Assessment Tool Izhar van Eenennaam 05 June 2017 In-company mentor: J.M. Buijs HZ University of Applied Sciences Abstract This bachelor thesis describes the graduation period of the Delta Management course. The study was conducted within the Resilient Deltas research group of the HZ University of Applied Sciences, partner of the FRAMES-project. A cooperative project between the Netherlands, United Kingdom, Belgium, Germany and Denmark to address the shared territorial challenge of on-going climate change. The municipality of Reimerswaal is indicated as pilot area for the FRAMES-project. In search for a suitable pilot location for the toolkit, Yerseke is selected, because this community experienced a pluvial flood in 2016. The aim of the research is to investigate how the development and application of an assessment tool can increase community resilience, participation in flood risk management and give insight to decision makers to identify differences between communities and include this knowledge in future policy and development. While taking into account the shift towards holistic, multifaceted flood risk management, demand for better understanding of a resilience approach, and include awareness raising, public risk perception and indigenous knowledge. The concept of resilience is defined as the ongoing process in which a set of adaptive capacities is linked to a positive path of function and adaptation before, during, and after a disturbance/disaster. Community resilience adds complexity to this definition, as it is more than the ability of an individual to cope with disaster.
