Stream macroinvertebrate response models for bioassessment metrics: addressing the issue of spatial scale.
We developed independent predictive disturbance models for a full regional data set and four individual ecoregions (Full Region vs. Individual Ecoregion models) to evaluate effects of spatial scale on the assessment of human landscape modification, on predicted response of stream biota, and the effe...
