Patterns of benthic algae and cyanobacteria along twin‐stressor gradients of nutrients and fine sediment: a stream mesocosm experiment

Summary The factors underlying population and community dynamics are almost invariably multivariate, and ecosystems worldwide are affected by many anthropogenic stressors. Inorganic dissolved nutrients and deposited fine sediment are common stressors in agricultural streams and can be expected to influence benthic algae and cyanobacteria. We determined population‐ and community‐level responses of phototrophic periphyton along twin‐stressor...
