It will send zebra mussels into fatal shock
Zebra mussels belong to the family Dreissenidae. These are freshwater bivalve mollusks. Despite their name, zebra mussels are not true mussels.
The number of zooplankton in the Hudson River can indicate the impact of large zebra mussel populations, as these invasive mussels filter significant amounts of water and consume phytoplankton, which are the primary food source for zooplankton. A decline in zooplankton populations may suggest that zebra mussels are outcompeting them for food or disrupting the ecosystem balance. Conversely, if zooplankton populations remain stable or increase, it may indicate a resilience in the ecosystem despite the presence of zebra mussels. Overall, monitoring zooplankton can provide insights into the ecological consequences of zebra mussel invasion.
