	WDFW - Aquatic Nuisance Species: Varnish Clam (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Growth in length was inhibited 47% in the manila clams, and 32% in the varnish clams.
		Further study is necessary to determine whether varnish clams, due to their propensity to settle in runoff areas and their bimodal feeding habits, may ingest unsafe levels of bacteria from the sediments before the contamination is high enough to impact other shellfish and overall water quality.
		Nuttallia obscurata, the purple varnish clam or the purple mahogany-clam.

	Clam Dissection
		Clams are marine mollusks with two valves or shells.
		Place a clam in a dissecting tray and identify the anterior and posterior ends of the clam as well as the dorsal, ventral, and lateral surfaces.
		Also, use arrows on the clam diagram to trace the pathway of food as it travels to the clam's stomach.

	Bivalves (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Clams, such as the northern quahog, are bivalves, meaning that they have shells consisting of two halves, or valves.
		The clam's foot is used to dig down into the sand, and a pair of long siphons that extrude from the clams's mantle out the side of the shell reach up to the water above (only the exit points for the siphons are shown).
		The oldest part of the clam shell is the umbo, and it is from the hinge area that the clam extends as it grows.

	Clam Identification Key
		The most commonly encountered clams on King County's marine beaches are the manila clam, native littleneck, butter clam, cockle, horse clam, eastern softshell and macoma clams.
		To tell the horse and softshell clams apart, hold the clams on their ends and see whether the outlines of both shells are the same.
		Most clams passively filter the water to obtain their food while the macomas use their long (up to 18) inhalant siphon like a vacuum cleaner hose which they move around to suck up detritus from the surface of the substrate.

	Lower Cook Inlet Razor Clam Research (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		The abundance of clams from 2.6 miles north of the Ninilchik River to 1 mile south of the river was estimated to be over 1.3 million clams 3 inches and greater in length in 2003.
		Clams on a particular beach section are probably the progeny of clams from that and surrounding beaches so wide spread depletion of the clam stocks would have to occur before abundance would be impacted.
		In addition, future clam research will focus on improving age determination by studying spawn timing, length of time before larval clams settle from the water column to beaches and the amount of growth that occurs during the first two years of life.

	Operation Clambake presents: The Clam FAQ
		The clam's big problem was that there was a conflict between the hinge that wanted to open and the hinge that wanted to close.
		After the clam came the 'Weeper' or the 'Boohoo', a mollusc that rolled in the surf for half a million years, pumping sea water out of its shell as it breathed, hence its name.
		The clams are steamed, along with some vegetables (typically potatoes and maize) in a pit covered with sand.

	WDFW - Razor Clamming in Washington State
		Razor clams are some of the best eating clams in the Pacific Northwest and perhaps the world.
		After placing your clams in a colander or in the sink, pour boiling water over them long enough to cause shells to "pop" open (5-10 seconds) Do not soak in boiling water as meat will become tough.
		Another way is to cut the four muscle attachments of the paired adductor muscles by running a sharp knife along the inner surface of each shell.

	NYSG: Hard Clam Research Initiative
		The Hard Clam Research Initiative was launched in October 1999 to investigate the population dynamics of hard clams in Long Island's south shore estuary.
		While not stated explicitly, a critical point was that the funds should be used to answer fundamental questions about why clams are no longer flourishing in south shore areas, not to just pay for further transplanting, seeding, or culturing of clams.
		It was in the late 1970's that hard clams became an intensive topic of NYSG research and outreach.

		By this stage, the mucus is sometimes obvious on the edges of the shells, Smolowitz said, and the sound of the clams trying to close up is “like a million people grinding their teeth.” The force of the grinding often chips the shell margins.
		These less hardy southern clams contracted the disease at a low threshold, and as they died, they may have raised QPX levels in the water high enough to make the native clams sick, too.
