Biología reproductiva de Limnoperna fortunei [PDF]

, 2023
Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker, 1857), bivalvo nativo del sudeste de Asia, se dispersó muy rápidamente desde su ingreso en América del Sur en 1991. Ello se vincula a la habilidad que tienen los adultos para adaptarse a amplias variaciones ambientales, a la ...

Expansion of fluvial transport of commodities through the Pantanal floodplains of Brazil: Potential impacts and interference by climate change

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 7, Issue 7, July 2025.
Abstract Inland waterways have historically been viewed as a desirable means for transporting commodities. However, creating and maintaining navigable river channels can entail substantial geomorphological modifications, resulting in changes to the ecohydrology of a river and its adjacent floodplains.

Roughness and Energy Losses Induced by Mussel Growth on the Walls of Hydraulic Structures and Application to a Water Transfer Project

Water Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 1, January 2025.
Abstract Mussel biofouling increases energy losses in hydraulic structures. The first contribution of this paper is the quantification of the mussel‐induced equivalent sand roughness ks as function of the mussel attachment density N and the shell length L. Laboratory experiments reveal that ks/L ≈ 1.5 for a continuous regular layer of mussels, which is

Translating science into actions to conserve Amazonian freshwaters

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 6, Issue 11, November 2024.
Freshwaters of the Amazon are experiencing unprecedented changes, but decades of research and practice have produced a rich foundation for advancing management solutions. Through a comprehensive review of the scientific literature on Amazon freshwater conservation, we highlighted 63 conservation actions that combined are critical for the long‐term ...

New bioinvasion in the Amazon: first record of the golden mussel Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker 1857) in the Tocantins River (Eastern Amazon)

Acta of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources
Limnoperna fortunei (Dunker 1857) is a species of mytilid mollusk popularly known as the “golden mussel”. Native to Southeast Asia, L. fortunei was introduced into Brazilian waters via ballast water in the 1990s and, due to its biological and ecological ...

Onset for Active Swimming of Microorganisms to Shape Their Transport in Turbulent Open Channel Flows

Water Resources Research, Volume 60, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract Research on active particles has primarily focused on transport in relatively weak flows, during which their active swimming plays a significant role. However, in natural or manmade waterways, the ambient flow velocity and water depth can be on the order of approximately 1 m/s and 1 m, respectively, generating turbulent diffusion that may be ...

Complex selection processes on invasive crayfish phenotype at the invasion front of the Zambezi floodplains ecoregion

Freshwater Biology, Volume 69, Issue 9, Page 1322-1337, September 2024.
Abstract Understanding the eco‐evolutionary processes which drive phenotypic variability in non‐native species is crucial to predicting impact and informing spatially explicit management models. Invasive redclaw crayfish, Cherax quadricarinatus, are spreading rapidly through the ecologically and economically important Upper and Middle Zambezi system in
