Response of diatom assemblages to the disruption of the running water continuum in urban areas, and its consequences on bioassessment

Transformation of river and stream channels disrupts their natural ecological cycles and interrupts the continuum of their ecosystems. Changes in natural hydromorphological conditions transform lotic communities into those atypical of flowing waters, resulting in bioassessment procedures yielding in...
