DOI: 10.3398/064.080.0311
Abstract: Abstract. Near-term extirpations of macroinvertebrates are predicted for mountain streams worldwide as a warming climate drives the recession of high-elevation ice and snow. However, hydrological sources likely vary in their resistance to climate change, and… read more here.
