Ecological energetics of the oyster Ostrea edulis l. in a temperate estuary

The oyster beds in the estuary of the Beaulieu liver cover approximately 15 hectares. An annual survey revealed that population structure was similar on each bed and provided data on annual cycles of condition index, caloric content and ash content of oyster meat. Individual oyster biomass is roughly proportional to whole volume and to the cube of shall height.
