Abstract
Mussels as a Tool to Monitor Pollution / Elena Cubero-Leon, Corina M. Ciocan, Environmental Biology, School of Pharmacy and Biomolecular Sciences, University of Brighton, Hastings, United Kingdom
Mussel is the common name used for members of several families of bivalvia mollusca, from saltwater and freshwater habitats. Mussels are economically and ecologically important as they play a key role in aquatic environments and are considered to be 'ecosystem engineers.' In this book, the authors discuss the ecology, life habits and control of mussels.
