Settlement success of the blue mussel Mytilus edulis on artificial substrates The Bay of Jade (see Fig. 1) near the city of Wilhelmshaven, aroused by tremendous storm tides during the 13th and 16th century, is [...] In the Jade-Project running since April 2006 blue mussels ( Mytilus edulis ) are cultivated under near-shore conditions. The aim of the project is, to compare all analysed relative parameters (e.g. settlement
