- W4250635833 abstract "Indices using diatoms are widely used to assess water quality, but are usually constructed from field correlations and not tested through rigorous experimentation. We tested experimentally the performance of the Sørensen and the Shannon indices, and the trophic diatom index (TDI). Nitrogen was naturally limiting in the eight remote sub-Arctic streams used and we measured the effects of experimental nitrogen enrichment on diatom assemblages. Diatom densities increased significantly in the enriched reaches but there was no significant difference in invertebrate density between control and treatment reaches. Grazing effects were thus controlled for. Diversity within streams (Shannon index) was significantly reduced by nutrient addition but the Sørensen index did not change. The trophic diatom index (TDI), which is presumed to reflect nutrient concentration, was not influenced by nutrient addition and generally the values were low in both control and treatment reaches. Densities of the diatom genera Achnanthes and Gomphonema increased significantly with enrichment while those of Nitzschia and Fragilaria decreased significantly. Less abundant diatom species, which collectively constituted around 40% in relative abundance in the control reaches, were around 15–18% in treatment reaches. Growth forms were altered by the nutrients. Diatoms attached by mucilage pads were more abundant in treated reaches compared with control reaches. Motile diatoms became scarcer. The size of diatom species was unaffected by nutrient enrichment. This study showed that it is important to test experimentally indices that are developed for particular habitats before using them elsewhere." @default.
