Predictive biophysical models of bivalve larvae dispersal in Scotland [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
In Scotland, bivalves are widely distributed. However, their larvae dispersion is still largely unknown and difficult to assess in situ. And, while Mytilus spp.

Predation preference of signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) on native and invasive bivalve species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Predatory, non-native fauna can influence biodiversity and trophic dynamics in invaded ecosystems. Signal crayfish (Pacifastacus leniusculus) are a highly successful invader, which have altered freshwater benthic communities, including bivalve ...

Once-iconic Pismo clams persist in southern California at low intertidal population densities and with variable recruitment

open access: yesCalifornia Fish and Wildlife Journal, 2022
The Pismo clam (Tivela stultorum) has experienced substantial population decline in California over the past century, extinguishing most public participation in a once-iconic recreational fishery before the end of the 20th century.

Step in Time: Biomineralisation of Bivalve’s Shell

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Biomineralisation process which is the induction of the precipitation of a mineral by an organism, generates hard tissues such as bones, teeth, otoliths and shells. Biomineralisation rate is not constant over time.

THE MOLECULAR APPROACH REVEALS THE RELATIONSHIP AMONG VENUS CLAMS ( Meretrix spp.) COMMUNITY IN MALAYSIA

open access: yesBiotropia: The Southeast Asian Journal of Tropical Biology, 2022
Molecular study is important to detect variations and similarities among species from the same genus, in case if they do not encompass any morphological or physiological differences. The study was conducted to differentiate among species of Meretrix spp.

Platinum Group Element Traces of CAMP Volcanism Associated With Low‐Latitude Environmental and Biological Disruptions

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 263-304., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Effects of the harmful alga Margalefidinium (aka Cochlodinium) polykrikoides on clearance rates of the hard clam, Mercenaria mercenaria

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Harmful algal blooms (HABs) such as those formed by the ichthyotoxic dinoflagellate, Margalefidinium (aka Cochlodinium) polykrikoides can have adverse effects on bivalves. While M.

Iceberg Scour and Shell Damage in the Antarctic Bivalve Laternula elliptica [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We document differences in shell damage and shell thickness in a bivalve mollusc (Laternula elliptica) from seven sites around Antarctica with differing exposures to ice movement. These range from 60% of the sea bed impacted by ice per year (Hangar Cove,

Identification of Perna viridis based on mitochondrial COI sequence

open access: yesJournal of Fisheries, 2023
The Asian green mussel (Perna viridis), a bivalve species of high economic importance, is widely distributed in the Indo-Pacific region. Here, we aimed to investigate the P. viridis species from Pakistan, a biogeographic area where nearly no P.
