Physical-biological coupling in streams: the pervasive effects of flow on benthic organisms

DD Hart, CM Finelli - Annual review of ecology and systematics, 1999 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract Flowing water has profound effects on a diverse array of ecological processes and
patterns in streams and rivers. We propose a conceptual framework for investigating the …

Physical mechanisms and rates of particle capture by suspension feeders

J Shimeta, PA Jumars - Oceanogr. Mar. Biol. Annu. Rev, 1991 - api.taylorfrancis.com
Models of particle encounter efficiency borrowed from aerosol filtration theory have
revolutionised ideas about mechanisms of suspension-feeding (a form of hydrosol filtration) …

Linking the hydraulic world of individual organisms to ecological processes: putting ecology into ecohydraulics

J Lancaster, BJ Downes - River Research and Applications, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
Ecohydraulics is a relatively new name for a long‐standing field investigating the
interactions between ecology and the physics of flowing water. In recent decades, a …

Fine‐scale field measurement of benthic flow environments inhabited by stream invertebrates

DD Hart, BD Clark… - Limnology and …, 1996 - Wiley Online Library
We used hot‐film anemometry to quantify fine‐scale spatial and temporal flow variations
near the surfaces of stones inhabited by suspension‐feeding larval blackflies (Simulium …

Estimating larval fish ingestion rates: Can laboratory derived values be reliably extrapolated to the wild?.

BR MacKenzie, WC Leggett, RH Peters - Marine ecology progress …, 1990 - int-res.com
We used literature data to compare the relative influences of body size, water temperature,
food density and experimental method on laboratory derived estimates of the ingestion rates …

Drift and benthic invertebrate responses to stepwise and abrupt increases in non-scouring flow

J Bosco Imbert, JA Perry - Hydrobiologia, 2000 - Springer
We conducted two experiments to assess drift and benthic invertebrate responses to
stepwise and abrupt changes in non-scouring flow in gravel-bed experimental streams …

Density-dependent dispersal of black fly neonates is mediated by flow

DM Fonseca, DD Hart - Oikos, 1996 - JSTOR
To understand and predict the dynamics of a population it is necessary to determine whether
processes such as dispersal, growth and mortality are density-dependent and how these …

Movement and dispersion of insects in stream channels: what role does flow play?

J Lancaster - 2008 - cabidigitallibrary.org
The interplay between landscape and movement can have far-reaching consequences for
populations, so an understanding of movement (or lack of) is fundamental. Flow forces …

Dissolved organic matter as food for black fly larvae (Diptera: Simuliidae)

JJH Ciborowski, DA Craig… - Journal of the North …, 1997 - journals.uchicago.edu
Black fly larvae occur in many lotic habitats but often dominate the benthos of lake-outlet and
brownwater (humic) stream communities. Water in these habitats contains abundant …

An ecological classification of primary labral fans of filter-feeding black fly (Diptera: Simuliidae) larvae

RW Palmer, DA Craig - Canadian journal of Zoology, 2000 - cdnsciencepub.com
On trouvera ici un modèle théorique qui peut prédire la répartition des différentes espèces
de mouches noires dans un bassin d'après la structure de l'éventail labral. Le modèle est …
