Abstract:Background: Benthic algae are at the bottom of the nutrient chain in the river ecosystem and are the basic guarantee to maintain the health of the river ecosystem. Human activities lead to changes in the hydrology and hydrodynamics of many rivers, which affect the growth of benthic diatoms. However, there is a lack of relevant studies on the effects of hydrodynamic conditions and exposure time on the growth of benthic diatoms, so the protection of benthic diatoms and other bait resources is difficult to be rea… Show more
