2025 Z. noltii core planting in Wadden Sea completed
4 June 2025
In May we successfully completed our annual seagrass planting activities in the Dutch Wadden Sea by collecting nearly 1,000 cores of Zostera noltii (dwarf eelgrass) and transplanting them to restoration sites near Griend and Ameland.
The fieldwork was carried out under favourable conditions and with the support of a dedicated team, allowing the planting activities to proceed efficiently and according to plan. These transplants form an important contribution to ongoing efforts to restore intertidal seagrass meadows in the Wadden Sea.
With the spring campaign in the Wadden Sea now concluded, preparations are underway for the upcoming Zostera marina restoration activities in Zeeland, scheduled for June.
