Anthropogenic impact on water chemistry and benthic macroinvertebrate associated changes in a southern Nigeria stream
TL;DR: Overall, the responses of macroinvertebrates to stress were reflected by the different assemblage structures recorded at the four study stations, indicating that water quality differences between the stations were responsible for the observed differences in the biotic assemblages.

Low-Cost Turbidity Sensor for Low-Power Wireless Monitoring of Fresh-Water Courses
TL;DR: In this article, a low-cost turbidity sensor design for continuous on-line water quality monitoring applications is presented, which uses both transmitted light and orthogonal (90 degrees) scattered light detection principles and is 2-3 orders of magnitude lower in cost compared to the existing commercial turbidity sensors.
