Invertebrate assemblages of pools in arid‐land streams have high functional redundancy and are resistant to severe drying (2014, background): “Dewson et al. (2007)conducted experimental water diversions in small streams in New Zealand and observed little change in species richness, which”
The hyporheic zone as an invertebrate refuge: a review of variability in space, time, taxa and behaviour (2012, background): “…conditions but have marked effects on instream communities due to reduced habitat availability (Wood and Petts 1999; Suren et al. 2003a, 2003b; Dewson et al. 2007a), increased population densities and biotic interactions (Extence 1981; Malmqvist and Sackmann 1996) and changes in food…”
Mechanistic effects of low-flow hydrology on riverine ecosystems: ecological principles and consequences of alteration (2012, background): “During experimental flow abstractions in streams in New Zealand conducted over 1 mo, total benthic macroinvertebrate densities increased by 37 to 59%, whereas densities of individual species increased by up to 851% compared with densities in control reaches (Dewson et al. 2007c).”
