Abstract
The newly established population of Perna perna surveyed at four sites along the Israeli Mediterranean coast averaged between 2155 and 8022 specimens/m² in June 2021. Three sites displayed unimodal size–frequency distributions, whereas the site adjacent to Haifa port – a bimodal distribution. The population suffered catastrophic mortality following a succession of heatwaves culminating in a prolonged heatwave in August (ambient temperature 36 to 38 °C, sea surface 32 °C), with diurnal low tides occurring midday. With the projected rise in both mean temperature, and prevalence, duration, and severity of extreme high temperature events, it is likely that even if a P. perna reoccurs, it will be of brief duration.
期刊介绍：
Aquatic Invasions is an open access, peer-reviewed international journal focusing on academic research of biological invasions in both inland and coastal water ecosystems from around the world.
It was established in 2006 as initiative of the International Society of Limnology (SIL) Working Group on Aquatic Invasive Species (WGAIS) with start-up funding from the European Commission Sixth Framework Programme for Research and Technological Development Integrated Project ALARM.
Aquatic Invasions is an official journal of International Association for Open Knowledge on Invasive Alien Species (INVASIVESNET).
Aquatic Invasions provides a forum for professionals involved in research of aquatic non-native species, including a focus on the following:
• Patterns of non-native species dispersal, including range extensions with global change
• Trends in new introductions and establishment of non-native species
• Population dynamics of non-native species
• Ecological and evolutionary impacts of non-native species
• Behaviour of invasive and associated native species in invaded areas
• Prediction of new invasions
• Advances in non-native species identification and taxonomy
