| Objectives The objective of the study is to assess how phytoplankton composition and quantity enhanced by forced upwelling of nutrient rich deep water in a fjord affects growth performance and detoxification in cultured mussels. Sub goals are: 1. monitor the fjord environment and succession of phytoplankton including toxic algae, 2. contrast feeding and growth performance in mussels affected and unaffected by the enhanced phytoplankton assemblage forced by upwelling of nutrient rich deep water, 3. estimate elimination rate of algae toxins in mussels introduced to enhanced phytoplankton concentration forced by upwelling of nutrient rich deep water. |

| The controlled upwelling of nutrient-rich deep water in oligotrophic coastal regions has been proposed as a means of increasing phytoplankton and, subsequently, bivalve aquaculture production. This was tested as part of a large-scale upwelling experiment in an oligotrophic environment (Lysefjord, Norway). The mean chlorophyll a concentration in the upwelling area was consistently higher than at the control site (mean ± SD: 3.3 ± 1.9 and 1.5 ± 0.6 mg Chl a m-3, respectively) during the 4 mo of controlled upwelling. After 2 mo with upwelling, the dry flesh weight of 1 yr-old and 2 yr-old mussels was 95% and 24% higher, respectively, than that of the mussels at the control site. The 1 yr-old mussels at the upwelling site achieved up to 2.4-fold higher dry... |
