Abstract :Climate changes affect the bio-ecological characteristics of living things in aquatic ecosystems. It is the main factor in accelerating the geographical distribution of species, especially by triggering species invasions. Also, climate change is important as it increases the risk of infection between species. Bivalve species are among the important fishery species due to their high nutrient content, widespread distribution in aquatic ecosystems, rapid growth, and ecological and commercial values. Climate change and its effects have caused some invasive bivalve species, which can spread rapidly in aquatic environments, to be included in the list of biological pollutants due to their ecological and economic effects. In this review, the role of climate change in the growth performance, economic and ecological effects of bivalve organisms and the sustainable alternatives that can be applied at the solution point were evaluated.Keywords : Global Warming, Mussel, Biological Invasion, Aquatic ecosystem
