The species composition of stream fish assemblages changes across the longitudinal fluvial
gradient of large river basins. These changes may reflect both zonation in species …

Mountain systems throughout the globe are conspicuously sensitive to on-going climate
alterations. This condition is much more detrimental in the Himalaya, where the rate of …

We investigated linkages between fishes and fluvial geomorphology in 31 wadeable
streams in the Etowah River basin in northern Georgia, USA Streams were stratified into …

Macro and microhabitat analyses were applied to characterise the fish assemblage structure
in 10 streams of the Western Ghat mountains of Peninsular India. Macrohabitat features …

Stream‐fish assemblage and environmental data for 13 sites in the upper Brazos River,
Texas, USA during 1997 and 1998 were used to assess the relationship between …
