  • Odense Harbour Mussel Project Report
    Report on Odense Harbour Mussel Project – September 2015 A pilot study to assess the feasibility of cleaning sea water in Odense harbour by means of filter-feeding blue mussels on suspended rope nets Florian Lüskow – Baojun Tang – Hans Ulrik Riisgård Marine Biological Research Centre, University of Southern Denmark, Hindsholmvej 11, DK-5300 Kerteminde, Denmark ___________________________________________________________________________ SUMMARY: The Odense Kommune initiated in May 2015 a five month long pilot study to evaluate the feasibility of bio-filtering blue mussels to clean the heavily eutrophicated water in the harbour of Odense and called for meetings with NordShell and the University of Southern Denmark. Over a period of 16 weeks the environmental conditions, mussel offspring, growth, and filtration capacity was investigated on a weekly basis. The results of the present pilot study show that the growth conditions for mussels in Odense harbour are reasonably good. Thus, the weight-specific growth rates of transplanted mussels in net-bags are comparable to other marine areas, such as the Great Belt and Limfjorden. Even if the chlorophyll a concentration is 5 to 10 times higher than the Chl a concentration in the reference station in the Kerteminde Fjord mussels do not grow with a factor of 5 to 10 faster. Changing salinities, which might influence the growth of mussels to a minor degree, rarely fall below the critical value of 10. The natural recruitment of the local mussel population which is mainly located up to 2 m below the water surface is sufficient for rope farming, and natural thinning of densely populated ropes leads to densities between 20 to 56 ind.

    THE DANISH IMMIGRANT MUSEUM - AN INTERNATIONAL CULTURAL CENTER Activity book An Immigrant Story The story of Jens Jensen and his journey to America in 1910. The Danish Immigrant Museum 2212 Washington Street Elk Horn, Iowa 51531 712-764-7001 www.danishmuseum.org 1 Name of traveler This is Denmark. From here you start your journey as an emigrant towards America. Denmark is a country in Scandinavia which is in the northern part of Europe. It is a very small country only 1/3 the size of the state of Iowa. It is made up of one peninsula called Jutland and 483 islands so the seaside is never far away. In Denmark the money is called kroner and everyone speaks Danish. The capital is called Copenhagen and is home to Denmark’s Royal Family and Parliament. The Danish royal family is the oldest in Europe. It goes all the way back to the Viking period. Many famous people have come from Denmark including Hans Christian Andersen who wrote The Little Mermaid. He was born in Odense and moved to Copenhagen. The Danish Immigrant Museum 2212 Washington Street Elk Horn, Iowa 51531 712-764-7001 www.danishmuseum.org Can you draw a line from Odense to Copenhagen? Did he have to cross the water to get there? 2 This is Jens Jensen. He lived in Denmark on a farm in 1910. That was a little over a hundred years ago. You can color him in. In 1910 Denmark looked much like it does today except that most people were farmers; they would grow wheat and rye, and raise pigs and cows.
