The Bronx River is an urban waterway with a long history of anthropogenic disturbance. We
conducted a longitudinal assessment of the Bronx River's water quality by measuring …

Floods are naturally occurring extreme hydrological events that affect stream habitats and
biota at multiple extents. Benthic macroinvertebrates (BM) are widely used to assess …

Benthic macroinvertebrates are frequently used as bioindicators of stream health. We
compared macroinvertebrate communities from 22 urban stream sites with a range of …

Habitat diversity plays a crucial role in shaping the structure and distribution of benthic
macroinvertebrate communities. However, few studies have investigated the concurrent …

Simple Summary Watersheds, as carriers of biodiversity with distinct boundaries, can
provide the basic conditions for the distribution and dispersal of species. This study found …

The many advantages to using benthic macroinvertebrates in freshwater biomonitoring are
now well known and utilizing them in water quality monitoring has become a common …

Understanding the relationship between benthic macroinvertebrates and environmental
variables is the first step toward establishing sustainable freshwater ecosystems in terms of …

We collected and analyzed benthic macroinvertebrate (BMI) communities from two creeks in
east San Francisco Bay, California over a four-year period to test the hypothesis that these …

Freshwater macroinvertebrates are a diverse group and play key ecological roles, including
accelerating nutrient cycling, filtering water, controlling primary producers, and providing …

Freshwater biodiversity underlies severe threats, mainly suffering from habitat degradation
by anthropogenic land use, in particular by urbanisation. However, recent long-term studies …
