Title Effects of watershed vegetation and disturbance on invertebrate community structure in western Cascade streams: implications for stream ecosystem theory
Creator Hawkins, Charles P.
Description Current theory in stream ecology posits a strong linkage between watershed or riparian vegetation and structure of consumer communities in streams (Cummins et al. 1984, Minshall et al. 1985, Vannote et al. 1980). In this view, degree of vegetative canopy influences the relative proportion of allochthonous litter and autochthonous plant matter available to consumers.
