The effects of irrigation water withdrawals on macroinvertebrate community structure and life history strategies

Creator:

Miller, Scott W.

Abstract:

I used current water management practices in central and eastern Oregon and Washington as natural experiments to quantify the effects of irrigation water withdrawals on macroinvertebrate community structure and life history strategies. Reduced discharge had direct (e.g. decreased velocity and wetted habitat) and indirect (e.g. increased conductivity and temperature) effects...
