| Title | Beavers Alter Stream Macroinvertebrate Communities in Northeastern Utah |
| Creator | Washko, Susan E. Roper, Brett B. Atwood, Trisha Brooke |
| Description | Understanding changes in macroinvertebrate communities is important because they play a large role in stream ecosystem functioning, and they are an important food resource for fish. Beaver‐induced changes to stream morphology could alter macroinvertebrate communities, which in turn could affect food webs and ecosystem function. However, studies investigating the effects of North American beaver activities on macroinvertebrates are rare in the inter‐mountain west, an area with high potential... |
