Mesocosms platform

The Concarneau Marine Station's mesocosm platform was inaugurated in 2017 for the research and breeding of local organisms.

The platform is composed of:

  • Four aquarium rooms,
  • "Acidification" equipment,
  • Aquariums of various sizes

The installation makes it possible to control the seawater (filters of various sizes, UV treatment) according to the needs.
