Non-additive increases in sediment stability are generated by macroinvertebrate species interactions in laboratory streams.

Previous studies have shown that biological structures such as plant roots can have large impacts on landscape morphodynamics, and that physical models that do not incorporate biology can generate qualitatively incorrect predictions of sediment transport. However, work to date has focused almost ent...
