Stream diatom assemblages in an Arctic catchment: diversity and relationship to ecosystem-scale primary production
We quantified benthic diatom diversity in streams in the Miellajokka catchment, about 200 km north of the Arctic circle in Sweden. Beta diversity among sites was related to local-scale environmental heterogeneity (occurring on the order of 1 km or less), and its magnitude was equal (Sørensen Index =...
