Marker Wadden Natural Islands Take Shape
As of this week SV Spirit will be operating on the Marker Wadden project for Boskalis. Activities consist of performing crew tendering and multibeam surveys. The Marker Wadden are natural islands and will be developed in the Markermeer lake in the years to come. They will provide a boost for the ecological quality of the Markermeer lake.
The natural shores of the islands will give fish more opportunities to spawn and feed, resulting in a large numbers of birds such as terns and waders returning to the area because there will be more food for them. The construction of the Marker Wadden will transform the map of the Netherlands.
Boskalis has been awarded the first phase of the Marker Wadden development project in the Netherlands. The project includes the construction of an island with underwater landscaping.
