• Land cover disturbance homogenizes aquatic insect functional structure in neotropical savanna streams (2018, background): “Heterogeneous substrates allow for more diverse benthic communities and provide refuge, whereas homogeneous substrates imply more exposure to physical disturbances, such as current velocity and shear stress (Beisel et al., 2000; Milesi et al., 2016).”
• Algal communities in human‐impacted stream ecosystems suffer beta‐diversity decline (2007, background): “…alterations of the natural stream habitat can be detrimental to the ecosystem considering that physical and hydraulic heterogeneity are essential for maintaining diverse communities in streams (BaattrupPedersen & Riis, 1999; Beisel et al ., 2000; Passy, 2001; Cardinale et al ., 2002; Brown, 2003).”
