Basics
Current knowledge suggests that Lake Tahoe can support adult mussels for short period of time however, whether juveniles, and thus a reproducing population can sustain is currently unknown. The proposed research will directly assess the habitat suitability of Lake Tahoe and its watershed to support the establishment of quagga mussel by testing the survivability of veliger to sub-adult stage using Lake Tahoe water. This information will be important for supporting the current efforts related to inspection and decontamination of boats entering Lake Tahoe.

Threshold Categories
-
Quagga and zebra mussels are establishing in western waterways with large densities in the Colorado Aqueduct system and established populations in North Central California. This invasion is already having profound ecological and economic impacts in these ecosystems.
