The Soft-shell Clam Mya Arenaria
Author: Victor S. Kennedy

ISBN: 9781934874745
Category : Clam culture
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"Populations of the temperate-boreal soft-shell clam Mya arenaria live in shallow, coastal marine soft sediments, predominantly in North America and Europe. Often a large component of infaunal biomass, this species plays important roles in soft-bottom food webs, both benthic and pelagic. It serves as a competitor for some benthic organisms and as important prey for others. Clams feed by filtering the water column and can ingest and concentrate toxic microalgae that can sicken or kill humans. The soft-shell clam has supported important fisheries in the Canadian Atlantic provinces and northeastern United States, first by indigenous coastal tribes and later by European colonists and their descendants to the present time. Over time, clam fisheries have faced problems associated with habitat loss, natural and introduced predators, pollution, growth of toxic algae, and climate change. In addition, overfishing has been suggested as one mechanism partly responsible for declines in commercial landings. Because of its importance as human food, this species has received attention from managers and mariculturists, as well as researchers and students. In parts of its range, mariculture efforts have been very successful in culturing populations for commercial fishery or restoration efforts. This publication assembles and synthesizes published data on the clam to assist researchers and students studying the organism and its role in its ecosystem, as well as facilitating efforts at managing its fishery and enabling mariculture"--Publisher.
