Long-term demography of a zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) population
1. We used long-term data and a simulation model to investigate temporal fluctuations in zebra mussel populations, which govern the ecological and economic impacts of this pest species. 2. The size of the zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) population in the Hudson River estuary fluctuated approximately 11-fold across a 13-year period, following a cycle with a 2–4 year period. 3. This cycling w...
متن کاملEffects of Zebra Mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) Colonization on Water Quality Parameters in Saginaw Bay, Lake Huron
A large-scale study of Saginaw Bay was initiated in 1990 and continued through 1993 to examine the effects of the zebra mussel colonization which began in summerlfall 1991. Saginaw Bay responded quickly to the zebra mussel colonization, as fall 1991 values of chlorophyll were similar to 1992 and 1993 values. In inner Saginaw Bay, where most zebra mussels were found, chlorophyll, kPAR, and total...
متن کاملModeling the Effects of Cannibalistic Behavior in Zebra Mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) Populations
The threat of invasive species has increased with the expansion of global transportation. In the United States, zebra mussels became a problem by the early 1990’s when they were introduced by ballast water into Lake St. Clair in 1988. In 2007, a new deterministic discrete-time model for zebra mussel populations was proposed by Casagrandi. We show how this model produces periodic, stable, and ch...
متن کاملImpacts of the zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) on large lakes: influence of vertical turbulent mixing
Vertical mixing processes and thermal structure of large lakes can impact the biological processes both through vertical transport processes and the exponential decay of light with depth. I investigated the role of these issues in algal consumption, production and influence on oxygen dynamics. The impact of a benthic filter feeder limited by physical transport of algae to the benthos. Hydrodyna...
متن کاملPredicted impact of zebra mussel (Dreissena polymorpha) invasion on water clarity in Lake Mendota
Lake Mendota, which is plagued by periodic cyanobacterial blooms, is typical of many lakes in the Laurentian Great Lakes region that are vulnerable to zebra mussels (Dreissena polymorpha) but have yet to be invaded. We coupled removal estimates with chlorophyll production estimates in a dynamic model to predict the likely impact of mussel-mediated removal of phytoplankton on water clarity acros...
