Disturbance regimes, resilience, and recovery of animal communities and habitats in lotic ecosystems
Disturbance regime is a critical organizing feature of stream communities and ecosystems. The position of a given reach in the river basin and the sediment type within that reach are two key determinants of the frequency and intensity of flow-…
