The uptake and discharge of bivalve larvae through ballast water operations is a highly viable mechanism for transfer of shellfish. In this paper, we investigate the effects of common water treatment processes on the planktotrophic larvae of the two invasive species of shellfish, Mytilopsis sallei and Mytella strigata. The study found that common water treatment processes used in many ballast water treatment systems were effective for the removal of bivalve larvae, although later stages of larval forms required more effort to remove.
压载水作业中双壳类幼虫的摄入和排放是贝类转移的一种高度可行的机制。在本文中,我们研究了常见的水处理工艺对两种入侵贝类贻贝和紫贻贝浮游幼虫的影响。研究发现,虽然需要更多的努力来去除后期的幼虫形式,但许多压载水处理系统中使用的常见水处理工艺对去除双壳类幼虫是有效的。
