Book ChapterDOI
Assessing environmental conditions in rivers and streams with diatoms
TL;DR: This chapter reviews the many characteristics of diatom assemblages that could be used in assessments and the methods and indices of assessment and emphasizes the importance of designing environmental assessments so that many approaches are used and results are based on rigorous statistical testing of hypotheses.
Journal ArticleDOI
Using diatoms as indicators of ecological conditions in lotic systems: a regional assessment
TL;DR: In this article, diatoms and water chemistry were sampled from 49 stream sites in the Mid- Atlantic Highlands region of the United States to evaluate the use of diatom as indicators of envi- ronmental conditions in streams across varying geographic and ecoregional areas.

Journal ArticleDOI
Spatial patterns and ecological determinants of benthic algal assemblages in mid‐atlantic streams, usa
TL;DR: The data suggest that broad spatial patterns of benthic diatom assemblages can be predicted both by coarse‐scale factors, such as land cover/use in watersheds, and by site‐specific factors,such as riparian conditions, however, algal biomass measured as chl a was less predictable using a simple regression approach.
Journal ArticleDOI
Comparison of correlations between environmental characteristics and stream diatom assemblages characterized at genus and species levels

TL;DR: This study highlights the need to understand more fully the rationale behind the rapid decline in the number of confirmed cases of tick-borne diseases in the United States.
