Identifying community thresholds for lotic benthic diatoms in response to human disturbance
Abstract Although human disturbance indirectly influences lotic assemblages through modifying physical and chemical conditions, identifying thresholds of human disturbance would provide direct evidence for preventing anthropogenic degradation of biological conditions. In the present study, we used d...
