| Abstract: | This paper presents the results of the analysis of density dynamics of the larvae of the Pacific mussel in plankton, and experimental
data on their settling on collectors in Vostok Bay, Sea of Japan, obtained in May–September 1989. It was found that, in the
summer-autumn season, complex demographic processes occur on the suspended anthropogenic substrata. These processes are caused
by the primary settling of pelagic larvae and by the secondary settling of juvenile mussels. |
