Dr Ivan Župan participated at the international conference devoted solely to scallop research that took place in Isle of Man, UK. He presented a poster with a title „Age and growth studies of scallop species living in the Mediterranean Sea – a review of methods, findings and opportunities for sclerochronology research“.
Dr Peharda presented a poster at the 1st scientific expert meeting on mariculture in the Adriatic Sea – Adriatic Mariculture , that took place in Zadar. It was a great opportunity to talk with collegues as well as aquaculture producers about results of the BiVACME project related to Mytilus galloprovincialis aquaculture.
Dr Daria Ezgeta-Balić delivered an interactive workshop on bivalves to children in Bijači elementary school, Kaštela. They talked about bivalve diversity, ecology and growth of different species, as well as sclerochronology research conducted in a framework of BiVACME project.
During a recent visit to the Instituto de Investigatcións Mariñas (Vigo, Spain), Melita Peharda Uljević delivered a lecture on sclerochronology research. She met with Dr Laura García Peteiro and Dr Jose Manuel Fernández Babarro at and discussed options for collaboration.
Dr Krešimir Markulin presented the results of our research on shell geochemistry of Mytilus galloprovincialis shells at the international congress in Poreč. BiVACME is truly an interdisciplinary project
Another exciting evening! Split, city centre & scientists on the streets. We are proud to be part of this exciting event and happy to have the opportunity to share our research with the public – especially children.
Niko Bujas successfully defended his thesis “Age structure and growth of bivalve Unio crassus in different environmental conditions” at the Faculty of Sciences, University of Zagreb. His research was dealing with growth patterns of endangered freshwater bivalve species. Samples were collected in a framework of the HRZZ project METABIOM (PI Zrinka Dragun), while samples were analysed in a framework of our BIVACME project.
BiVACME PI Melita Peharda Uljević and BiVACME team member Hrvoje Mihanović were invited speakers at the international scientific symposium Interdisciplinary Approach to Scientific Research of the Adriatic Sea (InspireAdriatic 2023) that took place at the Ruđer Bošković Institute. The title of Melita’s talk was “Sclerochronology research in the Adriatic Sea – what can we learn from bivalve shells?”, while Hrvoje delivered a talk with a title “Measurements in physical oceanography, an important aspect of interdisciplinary marine research”.
Amazing meeting organised by Prof Elizabeth Harper at the University of Cambridge – with bivalve researchers from all over the world. Melita Peharda Uljević presented research conducted in a framework of the BiVACME project with the title “Bivalves as archives of environmental change in the coastal marine ecosystem – sclerochronology research in the Adriatic Sea”.
As a part of Blue-connect project, Reconnecting Science with the Blue Society, Hana Uvanović and Melita Peharda Uljević delivered interactive workshops to two elementary schools in Kaštela, Elementary school Bijaći and Elementary school Kneza Trpimira. They talked about bivalves – their diversity and ecology – and presented the results of research conducted in a framework of the BiVACME project.
