Responses of macroinvertebrate communities to 4 years of deer exclusion in first- and second-order streams

Abstract We compared hydrological environments and macroinvertebrate communities in 1st- and 2nd-order streams between a deer-excluded catchment (EC) and a control catchment (CC) to test effects of deer-induced hillslope soil erosion and sedimentation on macroinvertebrates. Overland flow contributio...
