Trophic structure in response to land use in subtropical streams
Land use in the uplands can substantially impact the biological community in stream ecosystems, but how the trophic structure of aquatic communities within riverine food webs respond to catchment land use changes within their respective catchment remains

The impact of cattle drinking points on aquatic macroinvertebrates in streams in south-east Ireland [PDF]
peer-reviewedTeagasc PublicationMeasures that prevent cattle access to watercourses are commonly implemented through agri-environment schemes, in an effort to address the objectives of the Water Framework Directive. Despite the widespread implementation,

Efficient sampling methodologies for lake littoral invertebrates in compliance with the European Water Framework Directive [PDF]
Lake shores are characterised by a high natural variability, which is increasingly threatened by a multitude of anthropogenic disturbances including morphological alterations to the littoral zone. The European Water Framework Directive (EU WFD) calls for

Modeling Aquatic Macroinvertebrate Richness Using Landscape Attributes [PDF]
We used a rapid, repeatable, and inexpensive geographic information system (GIS) approach to predict aquatic macroinvertebrate family richness using the landscape attributes stream gradient, riparian forest cover, and water quality. Stream segments in the Allegheny River basin were classified into eight habitat classes using these three landscape ...

Evidence on Night Movements of Macroinvertebrates to Macrophytes in a Pampean Stream [PDF]
Nocturnal invertebrate abundance peaks in lotic systems are usually associated to drift, however, diel migrations other than drift may be important in slow-flowing systems.
