Can we estimate molluscan abundance and biomass on the continental shelf?
2017, Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf ScienceCitation Excerpt :The carbonate budgets for marine ecosystems are receiving increasing attention (e.g., Sanders, 2003; Ridgwell and Zeebe, 2005; Wright and Burgess, 2005; Lebrato et al., 2010; Liu et al., 2010). Although carbonate production rates are estimated for a number of estuarine and nearshore communities (e.g., Moore, 1972; Beukema, 1980; James and Bone, 2011; Powell et al., 2012), little information is available for continental shelves. Although the population energetics of major carbonate producers likely can be modeled with some accuracy (e.g., Savina and Ménesguen, 2008; Freitas et al., 2009; Begum et al., 2010; Munroe et al., 2013), standing stock, recruitment, and mortality estimates are critical.
Shell formation in cultivated bivalves cannot be part of carbon trading systems: A study case with Mytilus galloprovincialis
2013, Marine Environmental ResearchThe invasive bag mussel Arcuatula senhousia is a CO<inf>2</inf> generator in near-shore coastal ecosystems
2013, Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and EcologyCitation Excerpt :Estimated annual turnover ratio (P/B = 1.52) was similar to that exhibited by the fast-growing Mytilus galloprovincialis (P/B = 1.5; Ceccherelli and Rossi, 1984), and higher than that measured for the non-indigenous Anadara (Scapharca) inaequivalvis (P/B = 0.46; Mistri et al., 1988), another invader of the Northern Adriatic coasts. The CaCO3 total production by A. senhousia (383.7 g CaCO3 m− 2 yr− 1) was higher than measurements obtained by Beukema (1980, 1982) for Macoma balthica and Cerastoderma edule (13 and 118 g CaCO3 m− 2 yr− 1, respectively) in the Wadden Sea, and by Lejart et al. (2012) for Crassostrea gigas (134 g CaCO3 m− 2 yr− 1) in the Bay of Brest. It was comparable to the estimates by Martin et al. (2006) for the slipper limper Crepidula fornicata (515 g CaCO3 m− 2 yr− 1) in the Bay of Brest.
