The Corbicula clams (Bivalvia: Cyrenidae) are an ecologically significant and widespread group of fresh‐ and brackish‐water molluscs, playing a keystone role in aquatic ecosystems. Some species of this genus are subglobal invaders. The taxonomy of Corbicula remains very confusing, which hinders both fundamental and applied research on this genus. A comprehensive revision of the taxonomic structure of this group has been lackin...

Interwell partitioning tracer tests (IPTTs) are conducted in mature oil fields to estimate remaining oil in place, which is crucial for subsequent economic analyses and decisions regarding further field development. An IPTT involves the simultaneous injection of two types of tracers: conservative and partitioning, that probe the aqueous and oil phases, respectively. Although this test requires time, it probes the entire fluid...
