Fate and legacy of an invasion: extinct and extant populations of the soft-shell clam (Mya arenaria) in Grays Harbor (Washington)

Unsettling the record: modelling the devastating cumulative effects of selected environmental stressors and loss of human life caused by colonization in Burrard Inlet, Canada

“…Industrial pollution poisoning traditional foods has been found to result in an increased risk of cancer both in marine and oil sands environments [11,67]. Varnish clams, manila clams (Venerupis philippinarum) and softshell clams are invasive to the area but established and abundant in Səl̓ ilwət intertidal habitat, competing with the preferred and traditionally harvested butter clams (Saxidomus gigantea) and littleneck clams (Protothaca staminea) [75][76][77][78][79].…”

Human Mollusk Interactions in a Changing World

“…From an ecological perspective, mollusks are recognized for being bioindicators of environmental change and ecosystem quality (Fortunato 2015; Oehlmann and Schulte-Oehlmann 2003: 579–581), as well as, for providing several ecological services, such as cycling and storage of carbon and nutrients, water purification, stabilization of the shoreline, habitat structure and food sources to other benthic organisms (Gazeau et al 2013; Smaal et al 2019). Mollusks can transform habitats via the production of shells: they can affect the abiotic conditions and resources available to other organisms and can persist for centuries or more, producing long-lasting ecological and historical legacies (Gutiérrez and Iribarne 1999; Gutiérrez et al 2003; Palacios et al 2000).…”
