| 摘要： | In 1988 the US Army Engineer District, St. Louis, initiated a program to analyze the effects of commercial navigation traffic on freshwater mussels (Mollusca: Unionidae), especially the endangered Lampsilis higginsi, in the upper Mississippi River. Preliminary studies were conducted in 1988; detailed studies were initiated in 1989 and will continue for at least 6 years. In July 1990, mussels were collected using qualitative and quantitative (0.25 sq m total substrate) methods at dense and diverse beds in Pool 17 (RM 450.4 and 448.7) and Pool 12 (RM 571.5). Water velocity and suspended solids concentrations were measured immediately following vessel passage at sites where mussels were collected. An assessment of commercial navigation traffic effects will be based on a comparison of baseline data (1989-94) with data collected during periods of increased traffic intensity following 1994.
