Severity Multipliers as a Methodology to Explore Potential Effects of Climate Change on Stream Bioassessment Programs

Given the scientific consensus that climate change is impacting biodiversity, estimates of future climate change effects on stream communities and assessments of potential biases are necessary. Here, we propose a simple technique to approximate changes in invertebrate and fish biomonitoring results....
