Exploitation of natural food sources by two sympatric, invasive suspension-feeders: Crassostrea gigas and Crepidula fornicata (2007, background): “Multiple ecosystem impacts have since been documented: sediment transformation (Ehrhold et al. 1998), macrozoobenthos modifications (de Montaudouin et al. 1999, Le Pape et al. 2004) and changes in food web structure (Chauvaud et al. 2000).”
Direct evidence of a biologically active coastal silicate pump: Ecological implications (2002, background): “The Bay of Brest is showing a long-term change in the seasonal timing of phytoplankton biomass development (Chauvaud et al. 2000).”
Separating the grain from the chaff: particle selection in suspension- and deposit-feeding bivalves (2004, background): “…on the mechanisms of particle selection and rejection have become a major area of biological oceanographic research (e.g., Bayne, 1976; Taghon et al., 1978; Jumars et al., 1982; Lopez and Cheng, 1983; Doering and Oviatt, 1986; Shimeta and Jumars, 1991; Yen et al., 1991; Chauvaud et al., 2000).”
Differential δ13C and δ15N signatures among scallop tissues: implications for ecology and physiology (2002, background): “The Bay of Brest is a macrotidal ecosystem of 180 km² that is connected to the Atlantic Ocean by a narrow and deep strait (for a review of the characteristics of the study site, see Chauvaud et al., 2000).”
The ecological role of bivalve shellfish aquaculture in the estuarine environment: A review with application to oyster and clam culture in West Coast (USA) estuaries (2009, background): “Oysters also tend to be able to cope with high seston loads by augmenting pseudofeces production, whereas clams and scallops lower their clearance rates as particle concentrations increase (Newell and Langdon, 1996; Defossez and Hawkins, 1997; Hawkins et al., 1998; Chauvaud et al., 2000).”
