Flow patterns affect leaf processing by invertebrates in temperate streams

thesis
posted on 2009-01-01, 00:00 authored by Alistair R. Danger
This work qualified how stream hydraulics affect leaf accumulation habitats used by stream-dwelling insects and the speed at which leaves decompose as a consequence of the species and numbers of insects that live within leaf packs. Leaf accumulations decompose faster in slower moving water because they attract more insects.
