Molluscs from a shallow-water whale-fall and their affinities with adjacent benthic communities on the Swedish west coast [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We conducted a species-level study of molluscs associated with a 5-m long carcass of a minke whale at a depth of 125 m in the Kosterfjord (North Sea, Sweden).

Faunal change in Cretaceous endemic shallow-marine bivalve genera/subgenera of the northeast Pacific [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Endemic shallow-marine Cretaceous bivalves in the northeast Pacific region (NEP), extending from southwestern Alaska to the northern part of Baja California Sur, Mexico, are tabulated and discussed in detail for the first time.

An evaluation of the efficacy of shell hash for the mitigation of intertidal sediment acidification

open access: yesEcosphere, 2022
Our objectives were twofold: (1) to determine whether the addition of shell hash to intertidal sediments would mitigate porewater acidification and (2) whether its effectiveness was dependent on the type of sediment as described by organic matter (OM ...

Petrogenesis of diachronous mixed siliciclastic-carbonate megafacies in the cool-water Oligocene Tikorangi Formation, Taranaki Basin, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The Oligocene (Whaingaroan-Waitakian) Tikorangi Formation is a totally subsurface, lithostratigraphically complex, mixed siliciclastic-limestone-rich sequence forming an important fracture reservoir within Taranaki Basin, New Zealand.

Advancements in Characterizing Tenacibaculum Infections in Canada

open access: yesPathogens, 2020
Tenacibaculum is a genus of gram negative, marine, filamentous bacteria, associated with the presence of disease (tenacibaculosis) at aquaculture sites worldwide; however, infections induced by this genus are poorly characterized. Documents regarding the

Mussels with Meat: Bivalve Tissue-Shell Radiocarbon Age Differences and Archaeological Implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Local reservoir ages are often estimated from the difference between the radiocarbon ages of aquatic material and associated terrestrial samples for which no reservoir effect is expected.

Microplastic pollution in commercially important edible marine bivalves: A comprehensive review

open access: yesFood Chemistry: X
Microplastics have become major pollutants in the marine environment and can accumulate in high concentrations, especially in the gut of marine organisms. Unlike other seafood, bivalves are consumed whole, along with their digestive systems, resulting in

Sources, determination, and safety assessment of cadmium in bivalves

open access: yesCogent Food & Agriculture
Cadmium (Cd), a typical marine pollutant with a long half-life, is effectively monitored using bivalves as indicator organisms. Cd enters bivalves through their filter-feeding behavior.

Microstructural Mapping of Arctica islandica Shells Reveals Environmental and Physiological Controls on Biomineral Size

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The shells of long-lived bivalves record environmental variability in their geochemical signatures and are thus used extensively in marine high-resolution paleoclimate studies.
