Alteration of macroinvertebrate community in tropical aquatic systems in relation to sediment redox potential and overlaying water quality
Limnological studies in two tropical Indian aquatic habitats showed
that macroinvertebrate communities have greater diversity than other
biotic communities present there. Sediment redox potential is found to
be an important factor for alteration of macroinvertebrate communities
in aquatic bodies. Anthropogenic activities have influenced the
changing of sediment redox potential values of the studied sites and
there by affected the macroinvertebrate communities
