Changes in the Lake Michigan food web following dreissenid mussel invasions: A synthesis (2015, background): “Nalepa et al. (2010) observed a decrease in the condition index of quagga mussels in the waters b50 m deep of southern Lake Michigan between 2004 and 2008, whereas lipid content and glycogen content of the quagga mussels did not decline during this timeperiod.”
Dreissena and the Disappearance of the Spring Phytoplankton Bloom in Lake Michigan (2010, methodology): “The ultimate distribution of mussels has not been established since populations are still expanding into deep water at the present time (Nalepa et al., 2010); however, it is possible that further expansion of high biomass of mussels into deep water will be constrained by the extremely low…”
Twenty five years of changes in Dreissena spp. populations in Lake Erie (2014, background): “Similar trends in D. polymorpha and D. r. bugensis dynamics were found in 16–30 m and 31–50 m depth zones in southern Lake Michigan, where the constant increase in quagga mussel population density from 2001 to 2008 was also accompanied by a replacement of zebra mussels (Nalepa et al., 2010).”
