Influences of land use on the structure and function of headwater streams: A multiple scale analysis

The structure and function of stream ecosystems may be strongly influenced by land-use practices within watersheds. The magnitude of land-use impacts may depend upon the spatial arrangement of development in watersheds. This study examines the relationship between land-cover patterns and stream st...
