Impacts of rainfall runoff on algal community in a humid region reservoir riverine zone

Key Points

• Algal community structures change significantly with increased rainfall runoff in humid regions.
• Key evidence indicates that runoff events correlate with a marked shift in algal community dominance.
• Observational analysis across different riverine zones highlights the impacts of rainfall on algal diversity.
• This study suggests monitoring rainfall runoff effects is crucial for preserving aquatic ecosystems.
