Spatial pattern and environmental determinants of benthic diatom diversity in the middle and lower reaches of the Yellow River
By investigating multi-scale drivers of diatom diversity in a heterogeneous and human-impacted river system, this study proposes a framework for analyzing biodiversity patterns. It provides insights for sustainable management of the Yellow River and comparable large river systems.
