Holmquist and Schmidt-Gengenbach

We examined Tuolumne River benthos, in the reach below the iconic Hetch Hetchy Reservoir and within Yosemite National Park (California, USA), in comparison with two reference reaches, above the reservoir and on the Merced River, across 5 years (2015–2019) during the extreme California drought of the 2010s.
