Produktinformationen zu „Quagga and Zebra Mussels (PDF)“
Since the first edition was published, a second invasive dreissenid, the quagga mussel, has become established in the western U.S. and is rapidly spreading. This book provides the first comprehensive coverage of the biology, impacts, and control strategies for the quagga mussel. The new edition also includes updated coverage on the zebra mussel, including its spread through major river systems in the U.S. and Europe. Chapters cover the morphology, physiology, and behavior of dreissenid mussels and address their impact as well as policy and regulatory responses.
Autoren-Porträt
Thomas F. Nalepa was a research biologist with the Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), Ann Arbor, Michigan, for 37 years before retiring from federal service in 2011. He is now a part-time research scientist with the Graham Environmental Sustainability Institute, University of Michigan, and also maintains an emeritus position with NOAA.Don W. Schloesser is a fisheries scientist with the Great Lakes Science Center, U.S. Geological Survey, Ann Arbor, Michigan. He has been at the center since 1977.
Tom and Don shared a mutual interest in benthic communities long before the first zebra mussel was reported in the Great Lakes in 1988, but it was the discovery of this organism that initiated joint collaborations and research projects. Both attended the first organized meeting on zebra mussels in North America in 1989, and in 1993 co-edited the first edition of this book. Since then, they have continued to share ideas, assess research needs, and pool resources. Joint projects on dreissenids have focused on long-term trends and spread, population dynamics, biology, and impacts on the ecosystem, particularly impacts on other components of the benthic community.
