Grass-dominated stream sites exhibit low fish species diversity and dominance by guppies: an assessment of two tropical pasture river basins (2009, background): “reticulata, thus characterizing a type of biotic homogenization that conforms to the scenario 1 proposed by Rahel (2002), in which the invasive colonization of an exotic species may increase the similarity among sites.”
Documented and Potential Biological Impacts of Recreational Fishing: Insights for Management and Conservation (2006, background): “The diverse riparian zone processes affect biodiversity, reproduction, feeding, and predator-prey interactions (Pusey and Arthington, 2003).”
Influence of forest cover and mesohabitat types on functional and taxonomic diversity of fish communities in Neotropical lowland streams (2012, background): “Keenleyside (1979), Sazima (1986), Sabino & Zuanon (1998).”
Seed dispersal by fishes in tropical and temperate fresh waters: The growing evidence (2011, background): “Fruit-eating fishes in the Australasian region thus far are known to be low in diversity (Table 1) and to occur exclusively in the tropical areas of northern Australia and New Guinea (Appendix A).”
Land cover disturbance homogenizes aquatic insect functional structure in neotropical savanna streams (2018, background): “…of riparian vegetation cover generally changes physical habitat and hydromorphological and water quality characteristics (Ferreira et al., 2012; Pusey and Arthington, 2003), leading to macroinvertebrate assemblages with more generalist feeding behaviors and greater overlap of trophic niches…”
Preserving the biodiversity and ecological services of rivers: new challenges and research opportunities: Preserving the biodiversity and ecological services of rivers (2010, background): “Renöfält et al. (2010) suggest that climate-induced change in hydrographs could provide more opportunities for operating dams and power stations to the greater benefit of riverine ecosystems.”
The potential ecological costs and cobenefits of REDD: a critical review and case study from the Amazon region (2009, background): “Forest streams typically flow under the closed forest canopy and food chains develop from forest organic material (Goulding, 1980; Lowrance et al., 1997; Pusey & Arthington, 2003; Sweeney et al., 2004).”
A Comparison of Methods for Sampling Fish Diversity in Shallow Offshore Waters of Large Rivers (2006, background): “The riparian zone is a primary source of woody debris in lotic environments ( Pusey and Arthington 2003; because our sites were located offshore, no such debris was encountered.”
