Zebra mussels have caused considerable problems in the Great Lakes and several major river systems in the United States. Will zebra mussels find their way to the Mid-Atlantic? If so, how will they arrive? Where will they settle? What are the prospects for a significant infestation? This summary includes reports from the states of New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, and North Carolina. An overview by researchers at the Virginia Institute of Marine Science details the physical environmental parameters that seem most likely to influence the potential extent of a zebra mussel invasion.
