| Title | Development and evaluation of predictive models for measuring the biological integrity of streams |
| Creator | Hawkins, Charles P. Norris, R. H. Hogue, J. N. Feminella, J. W. |
| Description | The ratio of the number of observed taxa to that expected to occur in the absence of human-caused stress (OIE) is an intuitive and ecologically meaningful measure of biological integrity. We examined how OIE ratios derived from stream invertebrate data varied among 234 unimpaired reference sites and 254 test sites potentially impaired by past logging. Data were collected from streams in three montane ecoregions in California. Two sets of River Invertebrate Prediction and Classification System... |
