Benthic communities on hard substrates covered by Limnoperna fortunei Dunker (Bivalvia, Mytilidae) at an estuarine beach (Río de la Plata, Argentina)

Journal of Limnology, 2012
The structure and composition of benthic communities on hard substrates covered by the nonindigenous bivalve Limnoperna fortunei Dunker, the golden mussel, were quantified in the middle zone of the Río de la Plata Estuary (Argentina) from April 2001 ...

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 ...

A Potential Biocide for Control of the Golden Mussel,Limnoperna fortunei [PDF]

Journal of Freshwater Ecology, 2007
ABSTRACT We assessed to response of larvae of the golden mussel (Limnoperna fortunei) to different concentrations of a quaternary ammonium polymer (Bulab 6002 ®) in order to estimate its effectiveness in controlling this invasive mussel. Mussels were collected along the coast of the Rio de la Plata, Argentina, and were tested in two laboratory trials ...

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 ...
