Impacts of the Koka hydropower dam on macroinvertebrate assemblages in the Awash River Basin in Ethiopia

The Koka hydropower dam is one of the oldest large dams in Ethiopia. Damming is one of the anthropogenic activities impacting the distribution of aquatic life forms. However, to date, little attention has been focused on the dam’s impacts on the river macroinvertebrate assemblages in Ethiopia. The...
