Description
In March 2023, freshwater pearl mussels was re-located in the Lysaker river. The relocation was carried out as a precautionary measure because the discharge of injection compounds from the tunnel work at Fornebubanen can cause damage/mortality to occurrences of mussel in the area of influence. Fornebubanen is obliged to monitor the mussel population in the river and report annually to the State Administrator on the condition. On behalf of Fornebubanen, NaturRestaurering AS has carried out a survey in June 2023.
Data Records
The data in this sampling event resource has been published as a Darwin Core Archive (DwC-A), which is a standardized format for sharing biodiversity data as a set of one or more data tables. The core data table contains 50 records.
1 extension data tables also exist. An extension record supplies extra information about a core record. The number of records in each extension data table is illustrated below.
This IPT archives the data and thus serves as the data repository. The data and resource metadata are available for download in the downloads section. The versions table lists other versions of the resource that have been made publicly available and allows tracking changes made to the resource over time.

Sampling Methods
The survey is conducted by personal observations performed by freshwater ecologists. Density of freshwater pearl mussels was recorded per m2 at stations along a transect in the river. Due to depths which in some cases do not make wading possible, the work was carried out by snorkelling, where the density and condition of mussels were recorded within different zones of the river and recorded continuously in maps (Arcgis fieldmaps). A Gopro camera was used for photo documentation.
