• Intercalibration of mussel Mytilus edulis clearance rate measurements (2004, methodology): “This implies that once the inflowing water has passed the mussel inhalant siphon, it must not pass it again (Riisgård 2001b).”

• HABITAT CHOICE AND FEEDING ACTIVITY OF BENTHIC SUSPENSION FEEDERS AND MESOGRAZERS IN THE NORTHERN BALTIC SEA (2004, background): “It is known that high algal concentrations (> 5– 10 µg Chl a l–1) may lead to reduced valve gape and reduction of the clearance rate (Riisgård & Randløv, 1981; Riisgård, 1991, 2001).”
• Ecosystem engineering by mussels supports biodiversity and water clarity in a heavily polluted lake in Dhaka, Bangladesh (2016, background): “…filtration rate of a mussel is defined as the volume of water that passes through the mussel’s gills per unit time and can be approximated as clearance rates, i.e., the decrease in the concentration of chl a as phytoplankton is filtered out of the water (Coughlan 1969, Riisgård 2001, McIvor 2004).”
• Can we predict ectotherm responses to climate change using thermal performance curves and body temperatures? (2016, background): “…text for discussion. and exceed metabolic demands but, above some threshold, mechanical limits to food processing or physiological limits to absorption mean that additional food does not necessarily increase fitness (Riisgard 2001), and it is unclear where this threshold occurs relative to T opt .”
• Variability in particle retention efficiency by the mussel Mytilus edulis (2012, background): “The relative ease of indirectly measuring bivalve clearance rate (Coughlan 1969) using a variety of apparatus (Riisgård 2001) has contributed to a prolific literature (reviewed by Cranford et al. 2011) and requires that a known fixed percentage of particles are retained (100”
• Intertidal mussels as ecosystem engineers: their associated invertebrate biodiversity under contrasting wave exposures (2014, background): “In sheltered habitats, lower rates of food and larval supply (because of the limited water motion) and the high filtering capacity of large mussels (which would further reduce invertebrate larval influx; Riisgård 2001) could contribute to limiting invertebrate richness and abundance.”
• 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): “…migration, but Canada geese (Branta canadensis) as well as several species of dabbling ducks have been shown to have more substantial long term effects on eelgrass in areas elsewhere in the U.S., particularly where they overwinter in some years (Nacken and Reise, 2000; Rivers and Short, 2007).”
• Effect of temperature on filtration rate in the mussel Mytilus edulis: no evidence for temperature compensation (2005, methodology): “…Winter 1978, Brock & Kofoed 1987, Jørgensen et al. 1990, Bougrier et al. 1995, Lei et al. 1996, Haure et al. 1998, Petersen et al. 2003, Sylvester et al. 2005), but the subject is controversial due to often inconsistent results (Jørgensen 1990, Bayne 2001, Riisgård 2001a,b, Riisgård & Seerup 2003).”
