Title | Population and Community Dynamics of Freshwater Decapods in Response to Ecological and Anthropogenic Factors in Subtropical Streams in the Caribbean |
Creator | Perez-Reyes, Omar |
Description | Historically, cities were established in close proximity to the richest agricultural lands and freshwater resources. In tropical islands, urbanization occupies a large percentage of land use along streams and rivers and strongly affects the biota and habitat quality.
