Potential impact of small hydroelectric power plants on river biota: a case study on macroinvertebrates associated to basaltic knickzones

Potential impact of small hydroelectric power plants on river biota: a case study on macroinvertebrates associated to basaltic knickzones

Abstract Small hydroelectric power plants (SHP) have been considered as an alternative for the generation of electricity with reduced environmental impacts. Nevertheless, no studies have addressed changes in a particular kind of river macrohabitat commonly affected by SHPs, the knickzones. This stu...
