Study on Freshwater Macroinvertebrates of Some Tanzanian Rivers as a Basis for Developing Biomonitoring Index for Assessing Pollution in Tropical African Regions

open access: yesJournal of Ecosystems, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014
Macroinvertebrates and physicochemical parameters were assessed at 15 sites along five rivers in Kilimanjaro region, Tanzania, with the aim of understanding their ecological status and setting a base to the development of a biological index for tropical regions.

Comparability of macroinvertebrate biomonitoring indices of river health derived from semi-quantitative and quantitative methodologies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Aquatic macroinvertebrates have been the basis for one of the primary indicators and a cornerstone of lotic biomonitoring for over 40 years. Despite the widespread use of lotic invertebrates in statutory biomonitoring networks, scientific research and ...

Influence of Fluvial Structure on Benthic Macroinvertebrates in a Restored Meandering River, Geul Basin, Netherlands

open access: yesEcohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 1, January‐February 2026.
ABSTRACT Benthic macroinvertebrates are indicators of water quality and riparian ecosystem health. Their abundance and distribution in streams are associated with river basin environmental factors, including stream biotic and abiotic fluvial processes. We examined benthic macroinvertebrate diversity and abundance in relation to large wood (LW) and pool‐

A dataset of individual wet weights of benthic macroinvertebrates

open access: yesLimnology and Oceanography Letters, Volume 9, Issue 6, Page 696-715, December 2024.
Abstract Biomass estimates are crucial for modeling and understanding energy flow through ecosystems. Many modeling frameworks rely on published body weights of organisms to convert density estimates to biomass. However, published body weight data are limited to few taxa in a limited number of systems. Here we present mean individual weights for common

Effects of weir‐induced habitat fragmentation on the diversity and community composition of benthic macroinvertebrates in an agricultural stream

open access: yesEntomological Research, Volume 54, Issue 9, September 2024.
Abstract This research delves into the effects of weir‐induced habitat fragmentation on the diversity and structure of benthic macroinvertebrate communities in Topyeong Stream in the Republic of Korea. Through comprehensive zonation, environmental assessments and analyses of macroinvertebrate populations, the study brings to light the significant ...
