Method Step
- Description
-
The study was carried out at a total of 29 sampling sites distributed throughout the hydrographic basin, among varying stream branches, orders, classes of altitude and distance from the river mouth. Samplings were carriet out using the surber sampler in spring, summer and fall 2000; winter, spring, fall 2001; and spring 2002. At each sampling site, three samples of bottom fauna were taken by Surber net (opening: 20 × 25 cm; mesh: 500 μm; length: 0.5m) at transversal transects over 1 square meter sections of the bottom surface.
Sampling
- Sampling Description
-
The sampling design was as follows: 8 times, 29 sampling sites and 3 surber sampler for sampling site.
Samples of bottom fauna were taken by Surber net (opening: 20 × 25 cm; mesh: 500 μm; length: 0.5m) at transversal transects over 1 square meter sections of the bottom surface.
Method Step
- Description
-
All material retained in the sieve was preserved in the field in 80% ethanol. In the laboratory, macroinvertebrates were counted and identified to the highest possible taxonomic level (i.e., species), using a Leica MZ6 stereomicroscope.
