Diatom and micro-invertebrate communities and environmental determinants in the western Australian wheatbelt: a response to salinization
Diatom and micro-invertebrate communities were analyzed in 56 lentic wetlands from the wheatbelt of Western Australia. Sixteen water quality parameters were measured at each habitat and were tested as determinants of diatom and micro-invertebrate distribution. Nearly all waters were dominated by Na^...

Zusammenfassung: | Diatom and micro-invertebrate communities were analyzed in 56 lentic wetlands from the wheatbelt of Western Australia. Sixteen water quality parameters were measured at each habitat and were tested as determinants of diatom and micro-invertebrate distribution. Nearly all waters were dominated by Na^sup 1+^ and Cl^sup 1-^ and over half had low buffering capacity ( |
