Bivalve aquaculture has direct and indirect effects on plankton communities, which are highly sensitive to short-term
Research gap analysis derived from 3 earth_science papers in our local library.
The gap
Introduction Bivalve aquaculture has direct and indirect effects on plankton communities, which are highly sensitive to short-term (seasonal, interannual) and long-term climate changes, although how these dynamics alter aquaculture ecosystem interactions is poorly understood.

Although many meta-analysis studies have shown that climate change drivers, especially ocean warming and ocean acidification, can affect the lipid nutritional quality of bivalves, very little is known about how changes in oceanic dissolved oxygen (DO), another important driver of climate change, influence the lipid nutritional quality of bivalves.

Although a substantial amount of data exists concerning the relationship between ocean warming and the nutritional quality or physiological responses of bivalves, the interplay between major nutrient dynamics and physiological adaptation under ocean warming remains poorly understood.
