Corbicula fluminea is considered one of the most important non-native invasive species
(NIS) in aquatic systems mainly due to its widespread distribution and ecological and …

Vulnerability of coastal ecosystems has been increasing as a result of human perturbations
that compromise the ability to provide multiple ecosystem services. Vulnerability is a function …

The introduction of invasive species has become an increasing environmental problem in
freshwater ecosystems due to the high economic and ecological impacts it has generated …

The invasion of the Asiatic clam Corbicula fluminea in South America has already reached
Patagonia. Despite the well-known direct and indirect impacts that this species exerts on …

Abstract The Asian clam, Corbicula fluminea, is among the most pervasive invasive species
in freshwater ecosystems worldwide. Our objective was to study C. fluminea's functional …

Invasive species can change ecosystem services, cause loss of biodiversity, alter
biogeochemical processes, and significantly affect global economics. Corbicula fluminea is …

Zinc pyrithione (ZnPT) is an organometallic biocide with bactericide, algaecide, and
fungicide activity. Considering this biological activity, ZnPT has been used in anti-fouling …

Corbicula fluminea, is one of the most successful invasive species in fresh and brackish
waters. Dispersal is one of the most determinant steps in the invasive process, and the full …

Length–mass relationships are potentially useful tools to estimate individual biomass,
assuming a relative invariance within and among populations and, sometimes, among …

Corbicula fluminea arrived in the Miño Estuary in 1989 and, from there, colonized more than
150 km upstream. Our aim was to test the capacity of C. fluminea to cope with osmotic stress …
