Influence of riverine input on the growth of Glycymeris glycymeris in the Bay of Brest, North-West France
WOS:000418564200065 A crossdated, replicated, chronology of 114 years (1901-2014) was developed from internal growth increments in the shells of Glycymeris glycymeris samples collected monthly from the Bay of Brest, France. Bivalve sampling was undertaken between 2014 and 2015 using a dredge. In tot...

A significant negative correlation was identified between shell growth and the annual average salinity (1998-2014; r = -0.62). Analysis of the monthly averages indicates that these correlations are associated with the winter months (November-February) preceding the G. glycymeris growth season suggesting that winter conditions predispose the benthic environment for later shell growth. Concentration of suspended particulate matter within the river in February is also positively correlated with shell growth, leading to the conclusion that food availability is also important to the growth of G. glycymeris in the Bay of Brest. With the addition of principle components analysis, we were able to determine that inflow from the River Elorn, nitrite levels and salinity were the fundamental drivers of G. glycymeris growth and that these environmental parameters were all linked.
