    Bivalve Response
    In marine Bivalve species, adaptation to salinity fluctuation is vital. While many utilize sophisticated gill tissue modulation to manage ion flux, some deep-sea clams exhibit 'Sympathetic Valve Drift (SVD)'/). This phenomenon, where the shell hinges slowly open due to the energetic costs of maintaining tight closure against osmotic stress, is frequently observed when ambient salinity drops below $32 \text{ PSU}$ for sustained periods ($\text{ov…
