The wedge clam Donax trunculus is commonly used in environmental monitoring studies as
sentinel species for the biomonitoring of sandy beaches in Mediterranean areas. Taking in …

Environmental stressors impact marine larval growth rates, quality and sizes. Larvae of the
Antarctic bivalve, Laternula elliptica, were raised to the D-larvae stage under temperature …

We built a simulation model based on Dynamic Energy Budget theory (DEB) to assess the
growth and reproductive potential of the Manila clam Ruditapes philippinarum under …

Upwelling phenomena alter the physical and chemical parameters of the sea's subsurface
waters, producing low levels of temperature, pH and dissolved oxygen, which can seriously …

Sites with naturally high CO 2 conditions provide unique opportunities to forecast the
vulnerability of coastal ecosystems to ocean acidification, by studying the biological …

The influence of nutritional regime and water temperature on depuration rates of OA-group
toxins in the wedge shell Donax trunculus was examined by exposing naturally …

The wedge clam (Donax trunculus) is widely distributed along exposed Atlantic coasts, from
France to Senegal. This species has high commercial importance, with the mean capture …

Studies suggest that ocean acidification (OA) adversely affects various biological processes
in marine organisms, including reproductive capacity, larval development, biocalcification …

Estuaries in temperate regions represent the confluence or transition of three major biomes:
terrestrial ecosystems, freshwater outflows, and nearshore habitats and they face a variety of …

Climate change has caused gradual changes within marine environments within the last
couple decades and is expected to continue to impact these ecosystems. Changes to these …
