Bowdoin College experiment looks to test relationship between oysters and seagrass Students and staff hypothesize that the seagrass will help the growth of oysters, which could have a positive impact of Maine s booming aquaculture industry. C. Thacher Carter / The Times Record An experiment being conducted by Bowdoin College students and faculty will test if there is a positive relationship between oyster growth and seagrass meadows – a finding that, if true, could potentially aid the state’s booming aquaculture industry. The month-long experiment is taking place at Bowdoin College’s Schiller Coastal Studies Center on Orr’s Island and uses seven-gallon buckets containing oysters that are filled with water varying in temperature, acidity and seagrass quantity. The project also has a field component, where oysters were placed in a nearby cove in different locations relative to seagrass meadows.
