Research Abstract |
Relations of habitat structure and benthic invertebrate community structure to the amount of sediment production and outflow were studied in a set of mountain streams different in histories of deforestation and debris flow. Microhabitat diversity showed the maximum values in a specific period after the last deforestation and/or the last debris flow. Coverage of moss mat on substrates and ratio of exposed stones to partially buried stones could be explained by combined factors of sediment production and the riverbed width. Furthermore, we found that development of sandy bar structure enhanced the trapping efficiency of suspended particulate organic matter (SPOM) by the field observation in the tailwater reaches of dam reservoir and by the laboratory experiment using pine pollens as an SPOM tracer.
