Does the lentic-lotic character of rivers affect invertebrate metrics used in the assessment of ecological quality?
The importance of local hydraulic conditions on the structuring of freshwater biotic communities is widely recognized by the scientific community. In spite of this, most current methods based upon invertebrates do not take this factor into account in their assessment of ecological quality. The aim o...
