Earthquake-Related Changes in Species Spatial Niche Overlaps in Spring Communities
Abstract Species interactions between stygobites (obligate groundwater organisms) are poorly known, reflecting the difficulty in studying such organisms in their natural environments. Some insight can be gained from the study of the spatial variability in microcrustacean communities in groundwater-f...
