Abstract:Low-head dams are ubiquitous human disturbances that degrade aquatic ecosystem function worldwide. The localized effects of low-head dams have been relatively well documented; however, most previous studies have ignored the concealed process caused by native-invasive species. Based on fish assemblage data from the first-order streams of four basins in the Wannan Mountains, we used a quantitative approach to assess the effects of low-head dams on fish assemblages by distinguishing between native and native-inva… Show more
