The Role of Environmental, Land Use, and Spatial Factors in Macroinvertebrate Community Composition in Three River Basins in Ethiopia: A Variation Partitioning Analysis
Abstract:Community ecology, often called synecology, is the study of interactions between species in communities at different geographical and temporal scales, including distribution, structure, abundance, demography, and interactions between coexisting populations. Investigating the effects of environmental, land use, and spatial factors on the composition of macroinvertebrate communities was the objective of the current study. From three watersheds in Ethiopia, we gathered 30 samples of environmental, land use, spati… Show more
