Turkish Journal of Water Science and Management, 2023 Stream types determined according to altitude, slope and alkalinity in six different hydrobiogeographic regions of Türkiye were taken as the basis of the study. In line with the European Water Framework Directive, a macroinvertebrate based multimetric method was tested for Turkish rivers as a potential assessment.

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT River regulation following damming is often associated with deleterious downstream effects, in large part due to reduced total discharge and disruption of seasonal flooding. These effects would be expected to be exacerbated by drought, particularly extended drought.

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Florida's regulatory framework requires the establishment of minimum flows to protect aquatic ecosystems and water resources from significant harm. One of the primary methods used to evaluate significant harm is assessment of instream habitat, which relies on Habitat Suitability Criteria (HSC) curves that relate flow regimes and habitat ...

Spatial distribution of benthic macroinvertebrates in the Erhai basin of southwestern China
, 2012 The macroinvertebrate communities and relationships with environmental variables were characterized in the Erhai basin by sampling at 44 sites. Among the 76 taxa observed, Baetis sp., Tubificidae, Simulium sp., Eukiefferiella sp., Gammarus sp.

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The presumptive standards approach to environmental flows offers a method to develop interim guidelines for ecological and social‐cultural flow needs. The approach is based on deriving acceptable percent‐of‐flow limits based on naturalised flows (the absence of depletion or alteration of flow), and it can be an effective precursor to a full ...

Ecology of the benthic macroinvertebrates in the lower Ebro River: community characterization, population dynamics and bioaccumulation of pollutants in response to environmental factors / Ecologia dels macroinvertebrats bentònics al tram baix del riu Ebre: caracterització de la comunitat, dinàmica de poblacions i bioacumulació de contaminants en resposta a factors ambientals [PDF]
, 2010 [eng] The effects of the main anthropogenic impacts in the fluvial ecosystem of the lower Ebro River are evaluated along the five chapters of the present thesis, using the benthic macroinvertebrate community as a bioindicator.

, 2015 Temperature and oxygen are recognised as the main drivers of altitudinal limits of species distributions. However, the two factors are linked, and both decrease with altitude, why their effects are difficult to disentangle.
