Methods in Stream Ecology provides a complete series of field and laboratory protocols in
stream ecology that are ideal for teaching or conducting research. This two part new edition …

The diversity of life in headwater streams (intermittent, first and second order) contributes to
the biodiversity of a river system and its riparian network. Small streams differ widely in …

Why do people name things? Would we get the same information content if we refer to a
particular structure as a black oak tree, an oak tree, a tree, a plant, a living object, or just as a …

Agricultural runoff affects many streams in North Carolina. However, there is is little
information about either its effect on stream biota or any potential mitigation by erosion …

Species-level identifications are difficult or impossible for many larval aquatic
macroinvertebrates. We described the taxonomic composition of macroinvertebrate …

An understanding of factors that influence species richness of lotic insects is generally
lacking. We present comparative data on aquatic insect species richness from several North …

Quantitative sampling of benthic macroinvertebrate communities from 60 sites in New York
City's drinking-water-supply watersheds was undertaken in 2000, 2001, and 2002 as part of …

The ecology of shredding macroinvertebrates was studied in a first-order, headwater stream
on the Coastal Plain of Virginia. Twenty-three species of shredders were collected from …

Collections made over 20 years with a multiple habitat sampling protocol and Hester–Dendy
artificial substrate samplers were used to assess macroinvertebrate genera richness in first …

Anthropogenic pollutants disrupt global biodiversity, and terrestrial sentinels of pollution can
provide a warning system for ecosystem-wide contamination. This study sought to assess …
