Ecology of the invasive Asian clam Corbicula fluminea (Müller, 1774) in aquatic ecosystems: an overview (2008, background): “…introductions have consequences to other elements of the ecosystem including submerged vegetation, phytoplankton, zooplankton and higher trophic levels (Table 2) (Phelps 1994, Johnson & McMahon 1998, Strayer 1999, Cherry et al. 2005, Cooper et al. 2005, Sousa et al. 2005, 2007b, 2008, in press).”
Minho River tidal freshwater wetlands: threats to faunal biodiversity (2008, methodology): “So, the characterization of Minho River TFWs is restricted to recent studies (Sousa et al. 2005, 2007b, 2008, in press), and a general description is given in Tables 1 & 2.”
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).”
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).”
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).”
