Overview

Field surveys reveal cascade development alters macrozoobenthos structure in river ecosystems, suggesting implications for biodiversity conservation.

Key Points

  • Cascade development reshapes macrozoobenthos communities, decreasing diversity in river-reservoir systems.
  • Total taxa number peaked at intermediate connectivity levels, alongside increased Shannon-Wiener diversity in the wet season.
  • Water temperature and dissolved oxygen influence community distributions during the dry season, contrasting with connectivity effects in the wet season.
  • The confluence zone acts as a vital ecotone for supporting biodiversity within transformed river systems.
