Title Longitudinal and seasonal changes in functional organization of macroinvertebrate communities in four Oregon streams.
Creator Hawkins, Charles P. Sedell, J. R.
Description Relative numerical dominance and densities of invertebrate functional feeding groups are compared with longitudinal and seasonal changes in food resources in a Cascade Range stream system in Oregon. We also compare our data with hypothetical predictions of the River Continuum model. We found that both relative abundances and densities of functional groups fit qualitative characterization of stream reaches and the River Continuum model: Shredders dominated upper shaded reaches; scrapers were...
