| Title | Predicting thermal reference conditions in USA streams |
| Creator | Hill, R. A. Hawkins, Charles P. Carlisle, D. M. |
| Description | Temperature is a primary driver of the structure and function of stream ecosystems. However, the lack of stream temperature (ST) data for the vast majority of streams and rivers severely compromises our ability to describe patterns of thermal variation among streams, test hypotheses regarding the effects of temperature on macroecological patterns, and assess the effects of altered STs on ecological resources. Our goal was to develop empirical models that could: 1) quantify the effects of... |
