Aquatic community responses to drought disturbance: experimental manipulations of top predator extinctions and stream drying

Creator:

Boersma, Kate S.

Abstract:

Although it is generally assumed that the intensifying abiotic environment is the primary effect of drought on aquatic organisms, drought-induced top predator extinctions may be an important underlying mechanism. I used manipulative experiments to disentangle the impacts of drying and top predator extinctions on arid-land aquatic invertebrate communities. I then...
