Book North American Freshwater Mussels

Download or read book North American Freshwater Mussels written by Wendell R. Haag and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-08-27 with total page 523 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This well-illustrated book highlights freshwater mussels' fabulous diversity, amazing array of often bizarre ecological adaptations and their dire conservation plight. Summarizing and synthesizing historical and contemporary information as well as original research and analysis, the book describes the diverse array of mussel life history strategies and builds a cohesive narrative culminating in the development of explicit frameworks to explain pervasive patterns in mussel ecology. The fascinating and colorful role of mussels in human society is also described in detail, including the little-known pearl button industry of the early 1900s and the wild and often violent shell harvest of the 1990s. The final chapter details humans' efforts to save these fascinating animals and gives a prognosis for the future of the North American fauna. The book provides the first comprehensive review of mussel ecology and conservation for scientists, natural resource professionals, students and natural history enthusiasts.

Download or read book Limnoperna Fortunei written by Demetrio Boltovskoy and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-04-20 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book summarizes all currently available information on the ecology, environmental impacts and control methods of the golden mussel in industrial plants. The golden mussel was introduced in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, and South America between 1965 and 1990, swiftly spreading in freshwater waterbodies. In most areas invaded it has become the dominant macroinverebrate and a major fouling pest of industrial plants. Limnoperna fortunei attaches to any hard surface, as well as to some less firm substrates. The growth of Limnoperna populations in raw cooling water conduits became a common nuisance in many industrial and power plants that use raw river or lake water for their processes, both in South America and in Asia. This work is written by experts on the golden mussel from Asia, Europe, North America and South America, each chapter critically reviews previously available information, which is in sources of limited distribution, such as internal reports and theses, in various languages.

Book Native Freshwater Mussel Populations in Riffle Areas of Cassadaga Creek  NY

Download or read book Native Freshwater Mussel Populations in Riffle Areas of Cassadaga Creek NY written by Elizabeth Simon and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cassadaga Creek, located in Western NY state and part of the Mississippi River Drainage Basin, hosts a relatively strong population of native freshwater mussels. During summer 2004 and 2005, a study was preformed to quantify the mussel populations, as well as the environmental parameters impacting them. Results were obtained from analyzing data collected from five water quality sampling sites for both summer 2004 and 2005 for the following environmental parameters: dissolved oxygen, conductivity, pH, temperature, phosphate, nitrates, chloride, and chlorophyll a. Also, measurements of flow rate and water depth from five water quality sampling sites during summer 2004 and 2005 were obtained. Upon surveying Cassadaga Creek during summer 2004, twelve riffle areas with potential for harboring native freshwater mussels were identified. Within these riffles, eleven native freshwater mussel species were found in summer 2005, including living specimens of the New York State endangered species the Rayed bean (Villosa fabalis). Important findings from the study were that Ross Mills, one of the southernmost sites, appears to have the most ideal water quality in terms of dissolved oxygen, pH, temperature, conductivity, and velocity, as well as the highest quantity, diversity, and density of native freshwater mussel populations in Cassadaga Creek, NY. -- Author abstract.
