| Title | Evaluation of Macroinvertebrates as a Food Resource in the Assessment of Lotic Salmonid Habitat |
| Creator | Weber, Nicholas P. |
| Description | Criteria used to characterize lotic salmonid habitat are often based on observed correlations between physical habitat characteristics and salmonid abundances. A focus on physical habitat features ignores other habitat components, such as an adequate supply of food that set the physiological limitations on salmonid growth and survival. This study outlines the development of a habitat assessment approach that focuses on how invertebrate food availability interacts with stream temperatures to... |
