High mercury concentrations in steelhead/rainbow trout, sculpin, and terrestrial invertebrates in a stream-riparian food web in coastal California
Stream and riparian food webs are connected by cross-habitat exchanges of invertebrate prey that can transfer contaminants including mercury. Marine...

Assessment of macro-invertebrates’ colonization in the context of impacts of exotic and native broadleaf litter species in Ethiopia
The distribution of macro-invertebrates in freshwater habitats is influenced by invasive and native plant litter. The objective of this investigation...

Effects of inter- and intraspecific competition and food availability on shredder invertebrates from an Amazonian stream
Shredders play an important role in leaf decomposition in headwater streams; however, their activities can be affected by irregular leaf...

Disentangling responses of aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates to drying in saline streams and shallow lakes
In inland aquatic ecosystems, drying and salinity can co-occur as natural stressors, affecting aquatic invertebrate communities. Despite recent...

Determinants of Productive Capacity for Stream Salmonids
Trout growth and production are controlled by (1) the area and quality of habitat for sequential life history stages, (2) the availability and...

Changes in functional diversity of aquatic invertebrates across urbanization levels in a coastal island, Brazil
As the world becomes more urbanized, multiple stressors act in complex ways, but their effects remain poorly studied in coastal island streams. Due...
