Investigating tools for biomonitoring browning in streams: chlorophyll content of Fontinalis antipyretica

The chlorophyll content of the bryophyte species Fontinalis antipyretica was studied in seven small boreal streams of varying water quality. The aim was to determine whether the chlorophyll content of F. antipyretica responds to increasing water colour, and if the bryophyte could thus be used as a b...
