Do aquatic plant assemblages in the Paraná River change along the river's length?

JJ Neiff, SL Casco, EKA Mari, JA Di Rienzo, ASG Poi - Aquatic Botany, 2014 - Elsevier
We studied the distribution pattern of aquatic plants along the Paraná River from its

Spatial and environmental drivers of macrophyte diversity and community composition in temperate and tropical calcareous rivers

JT Grimaldo, LM Bini, VL Landeiro, MT O'Hare… - Aquatic Botany, 2016 - Elsevier
