DOI: 10.1007/s10750-017-3437-3
Abstract: Natural disturbances are agents of natural selection that drive multiple biological adaptations along evolutionary time. Frequent, high magnitude disturbances are expected to select for morphological and behavioral traits to resist or to avoid them. In… read more here.

How beavers affect riverine aquatic macroinvertebrates: a review
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "PeerJ"
DOI: 10.7717/peerj.13180
Abstract: Background As ecosystem engineers, the construction of dams by beavers alters stream habitat physically and biologically, making them a species of interest for habitat restoration. Beaver-created habitat changes affect a wide range of aquatic invertebrate… read more here.
