How beavers affect riverine aquatic macroinvertebrates: a review. [PDF]
PeerJ, 2022 Background As ecosystem engineers, the construction of dams by beavers alters stream habitat physically and biologically, making them a species of interest for habitat restoration. Beaver-created habitat changes affect a wide range of aquatic invertebrate species.
