Abstract

V originále

Based on the requirements of the Water Framework Directive, a macroinvertebrate-based assessment system to evaluate the ecological quality of streams has been developed by AQEM project consortium. In the Czech Republic the impact of organic pollution was principal pressure studied, but some morphological degradation of some sampling sites could not be avoided. A multimetric assessment system for three stream types was developed. Detrended Correspondence Analysis was used for the detection of the response of macroinvertebrate communities to the gradient of organic degradation. Significant relationships between abiotic and biotic indicators of organic enrichment/eutrophication were identified. Lotic and lentic habitats differed in taxonomic composition, ecological traits and biotic indices. The separate assessment of the riffle and pool parts of samples provides additional useful information when combined effects of organic pollution and morphological degradation are to be considered.
