Continuous precipitation loss induced more pronounced compositional and diversity changes in the lotic phytobenthos than one-off drought events
Changing precipitation dynamics is one of the most important mechanisms that, by affecting the water regime, modifies the physical and chemical environment of aquatic assemblages. Thus, hydrological extremes can be considered as key drivers that shape algal assemblages and lead to diversity changes...
