ABSTRACT Aquatic insects are an abundant, yet declining, taxonomically heterogeneous group with special importance in both aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Accurate estimations of insect biomass during their aquatic life stages are essential to advance our fundamental knowledge about insects, their roles in ecosystems, and their vulnerability to ...

Under Pressure: Macroinvertebrate Community Responses to Agriculture in Temporary Streams
ABSTRACT Temporary streams dominate global river networks and thus often occur in catchments dominated by agricultural land uses. Drying and agriculture can exert similar stressors on aquatic communities, for example, by decreasing dissolved oxygen concentrations and increasing fine sediment deposition.

ABSTRACT Intermittent streams dominate global river networks and are becoming increasingly common due to global change. Understanding the mechanisms by which freshwater biota respond to flow recession, drying, and intermittence is therefore important to our ability to support biodiversity as ecosystems adapt to ongoing stressors.
