Phylogenetic analyses of assemblage membership provide insight into how
ecological communities are structured. However, despite the scale-dependency of many
ecological processes, little is known about how assemblage and source pool size definitions can
be altered, either alone or together, to provide insight into how ecological diversity is
maintained. Moreover, although...

This study evaluates the functional organization of stream fish assemblages in response to streamflow factors and biotic interactions across a range of spatial scale. The study area for this project includes 109 stream reaches located on tributaries to the upper Missouri River in the northern Great Plains. Fish distribution data...
