“….g., De Groot, 1984;Baeta et al, 2014). Akin to other calcifying invertebrate organisms, it has been hypothesised that the physiochemical changes resulting from climate change will reduce bivalve growth, impair maintenance of shells (Maynou et al, 2020;Knights et al, 2020), and disrupt larval settlement patterns and spawning (Bascur et al, 2020;Figueirodo et al, 2022). In recognition of the environmental, social, and economic benefits bivalves produce, and the current and future pressures they face, the group is a focus for conservation efforts (zu Ermgassen et al, 2020;Buelow andWaltham, 2020, Gagnon et al, 2020).…”
