Direct habitat descriptors improve the understanding of the organization of fish and macroinvertebrate communities across a large catchment.
In large-scale aquatic ecological studies, direct habitat descriptors (e.g. water temperature, hydraulics in river reaches) are often approximated by coarse-grain surrogates (e.g. air temperature, discharge respectively) since they are easier to measure or model. However, as biological variability c...
