The effect of taxonomic resolution on the assessment of ecological water quality classes (2004, unknown): “A similar conclusion is drawn by Waite et al. (2000) and Hawkins & Vinson (2000), who recommend – if budgets allow – a better taxonomic resolution because genus/species data reveal the same bioassessment and landscape patterns, but with stronger statistical power.”
Benthic diatom communities in boreal streams: community structure in relation to environmental and spatial gradients (2004, background): “Ecoregion-level differences in freshwater communities have been mainly studied with macroinvertebrates (e.g. Johnson 2000, Hawkins and Vinson 2000, Sandin and Johnson 2000, Heino et al. 2002) and fish (Van Sickle and Hughes 2000, McCormick et al. 2000, Oswood et al. 2000).”
Taxonomic sufficiency: The influence of taxonomic resolution on freshwater bioassessments using benthic macroinvertebrates (2008, background): “…maximize the lines of evidence (i.e., the number of taxa) available for interpreting bioassessment results (Zamora-Muñoz and Alba-Tercedor 1996; Hawkins and Vinson 2000; Moulton et al. 2000; Waite et al. 2000); and they are most easily mined for other scientific uses, such as testing…”
