The students stand on a pier(码头)over the Harlem River in New York City.They stare down into the brown water.Their teacher, Mr. Rodman, pulls a long rope out of the river. Fastened to the end of the rope is a metal cage and inside are oysters(牡蛎).Taking tur
ns, the students measure all the oysters,and then compare notes. The biggest oyster is over 2 inches long, much bigger than a healthy size for its age! They also measure the level of oxygen. As more oysters grow, the water should become clearer and hold more oxygen.Also,other animals should move in.
Oysters are soft-bodied animals,and share the underwater community with plants,fish,and other life.They are food for crabs and other animals. As new oysters grow,they attach their shells to older ones, forming big reefs with many small spaces where other animals live.Oysters eat algae(藻类).If algae grow too fast,they can decrease oxygen from the water-and even fish need oxygen to breathe!
But what happened to the oysters 100years ago in New York Harbor? Before then, lots of oysters lived in these waters. They were shipped to restaurants around the world. By the early 1900s, people were eating them faster than they could grow. Pollution was pouring into the waters.The harbor became seriously polluted. Since the 1970s, new laws have helped reduce poisonous waste. Some fish started to swim through again. But oysters were still missing-until recently.
The Billion Oyster Project began in 2014 to help bring oysters back to New York Harbor. The project has recruited(招募)more than 6,500 students at more than 100 middle schools and high schools to help grow, distribute, and study the oysters.
Finally,the students put the oysters back in the cage. Mr. Rodman lowers the cage into the river. In a few months, they will check the cage again. When the oysters are big enough, they will be moved to join a heaIthy reef in the middle of the harbor.
