Assessing the environmental requirements of invaders using ensembles of distribution models (2011, background): “It was also observed in the Minho River basin but failed to establish (Sousa et al., 2008).”
Growth and extremely high production of the non-indigenous invasive species Corbicula fluminea (Muller, 1774): Possible implications for ecosystem functioning (2008, methodology): “The Asian clam Corbicula fluminea (Müller, 1774) is recognized as one of the most important NIS in aquatic ecosystems (McMahon, 2002; Sousa et al., 2008b).”
Massive mortality of the Asian clam Corbicula fluminea in a highly invaded area (2011, methodology): “This could potentially be responsible for important changes in the biogeochemical cycles (Sousa et al. 2008b).”
Negative effects of Corbicula fluminea over native freshwater mussels (2018, methodology): “The reality is that a limited number of manipulative experiments has established clear links between the presence of C. fluminea and the decline of freshwater bivalves; being most of these studies on sphaeriid clams (Strayer, 1999; Sousa et al., 2008c, d, 2011b).”
