Journal ArticleDOI

Assessing river biotic condition at a continental scale: a European approach using functional metrics and fish assemblages

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a multi-metric index to test the capacity to correctly model a variety of metrics based on assemblage structure and functions, and discriminate between the effects of natural vs. human-induced environmental variability at a continental scale.
Journal ArticleDOI

Global scale patterns of fish species richness in rivers

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyze variations in species richness of indigeneous freshwater fish on a worldwide scale and show that factors related to species-area and species-energy theories statistically explain most of the variation in freshwater fish species richness across continents.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development and validation of a fish-based index for the assessment of ‘river health’ in France

TL;DR: In this paper, a variety of metrics based on occurrence and abundance data and reflecting different aspects of the fish assemblage structure and function were selected from available literature and for their potential to indicate degradation.
Journal ArticleDOI

A probabilistic model characterizing fish assemblages of French rivers: a framework for environmental assessment

TL;DR: In this article, a reference condition approach was used to compare a fish assemblage exposed to a potential stress against a non-stressed condition that is unexposed to such a stress.
Journal ArticleDOI

Partitioning global patterns of freshwater fish beta diversity reveals contrasting signatures of past climate changes

TL;DR: It is found that spatial turnover and nestedness differ geographically in their contribution to freshwater fish beta diversity, a pattern that results from contrasting influences of Quaternary climate changes.
