Workshop on bivalve shells and project activities was conducted in one elementary school in Split in January. In the past we used to do workshops as a team and in a very interactive form, this time, respecting epidemiological measures only Melita went and each child was a separate set of material to work individually – this included ziplock bags with five different shell samples and color printed material. Melita presented main methods we use and our activities on the project.
During fieldwork conducted in Pag bay in July 2020, large mortality of long livin bivalve Glycymeris bimaculata was observed. Specimens were collected and transported to the laboratory at the University of Zadar for further analysis in collaboration wth our project team member Dr Ivan Župan and collaborator Dr Ivan Šarić.
