dc.description.abstract | We examined the relationship between land use, sediment transport and fish in four Appalachian streams. There was a significant increase in suspended load, and substrate embeddedness with increasing non-forested land use. There was also a strong negative correlation between non-forested land use and relative abundance of fishes requiring clean gravel for spawning. Finally, we established a relationship between NTU and TSS for Blue Ridge streams. | en_US |
