Boreas, EarlyView.To assess how the eastern part of the Limfjord system has changed over the Holocene, relative to the wider Limfjord and western Baltic region, a sedimentary succession spanning c. 9600–150 cal. a BP was collected from Nibe Bredning, near Sebbersund, from a shallow coastal inlet along the eastern connection between the Limfjord and the Kattegat (north ...

Fish and mussels: importance of fish for freshwater mussel conservation
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2015 Co-extinctions have received trivial consideration in discussions about the global conservation crisis, even though recent studies have emphasised their importance. This situation is even more pronounced in freshwater ecosystems where this phenomenon is largely unrecognized.

Cladistics, EarlyView.Abstract A long‐standing challenge in phylogenomics has been the resolution of relationships originated from ancient radiations. In these cases, phenomena such as incomplete lineage sorting can increase the support for conflicting resolutions. Most of the diversity in the Class Bivalvia originated during an Ordovician radiation; indeed, several deep ...

Freshwater Mussels as Biofilters
, 2004 Freshwater mussels (Bivalvia: Unionidae) are filter feeders, removing phytoplankton and other suspended particulate matter from the water. The removal of suspended matter from water is often considered desirable, in order to reduce algal blooms and in the treatment of drinking water.

Advancing conservation breeding programs for marine invertebrates
Conservation Biology, EarlyView.Abstract In the face of ecosystem change and biodiversity loss caused by climate change and other stressors, conservation breeding, or captive breeding, with the aim of reintroduction for wild population recovery, is an emerging tool for preventing species’ extinction and rehabilitating ecosystems.

Knowledge and uses of freshwater mussels in Europe
AmbioMost freshwater mussels (FM) in Europe have dramatically declined and are now facing extinction due to human disturbances. Given the recent EU initiatives to protect and restore freshwater ecosystems, public awareness should be considered in the implementation of possible management measures.

Managed Aquifer Recharge Operations and Design under Hydrologic Uncertainty
Groundwater, EarlyView.Integrated hydrologic modeling uses dual ensembles of MAR operations and IES‐derived parameters to evaluate mounding, inundation, and transport risks under climate extremes. Exceedance‐probability metrics quantify environmental risks across the MAR impact zone, showing drain‐controlled mound limits, recovery effects, and pathways to interdunal and ...
