Effect of methodology and sampling time on the taxa richness of aquatic macroinvertebrates and subsequent changes in the water quality index from three tropical rivers, Costa Rica
En zonas templadas, los macroinvertebrados acuáticos han demostrado de ser una herramienta útil en los estudios de calidad de agua y el biomonitoreo. Recientemente, se han realizado esfuerzos para adaptar estos métodos a los ambientes tropicales; sin embargo, aún existen dudas sobre la metodología y...
