Decomposition of different organic matter substrates and algal biomass accrual as early warning indicators of human impacts on stream ecosystems by Diana Rojo, Alberto Alonso, Javier Pérez, Agustí Agut, Brais Hermosilla, Scott D. Tiegs, Luz Boyero

“…Stream ecosystems are subjected to multiple anthropogenic impacts, and tools are needed that serve as early warning indicators of such impacts on ecosystem functioning and biodiversity. Here, we compared several natural and commercial substrates (namely several leaf litter types, cotton strips, and others) as tools to rapidly detect changes in the key processes of organic matter decomposition and periphytic algal biomass accrual, and their associated biological assemblages, in stream sites impacted by agricultural land use compared to control sites in northern Spain. …”
