The clam has also been reported as causing a decline of dissolved oxygen in the water of the same river system with wide-ranging second-order effects. [ 58 ] The primary economic and social impact of the invasion of C. fluminea has been billions of dollars in costs associated with clogged plumbing and, heat exchangers, or other human-created ...
