Should phylogenetic and functional diversity metrics compose macroinvertebrate multimetric indices for stream biomonitoring?
(Springer, 2015-02-01)
The idea behind multimetric indices is to integrate information from several metrics to provide a general classification of water bodies without losing the particularities of each individual metric. Historically, multimetric ...
Macroinvertebrate-based multimetric predictive models for evaluating the human impact on biotic condition of Bolivian streams
(Elsevier Science, 2011-05)
We developed and validated a single multimetric index based on predictive models that could evaluate anthropogenic disturbances in streams of three disparate ecoregions of Bolivia. To do so, we examined 45 candidate metrics ...
Trends in the application of multimetric indexes in Brazil: scienciometric analyses related to fish Fauna

Metrics derived from fish assemblages as indicators of environmental degradation in Cerrado streams
(Soc Brasileira Zoologia, Univ Federal Parana, 2018-01-01)
The development of effective monitoring tools depends on finding sensitive metrics that are capable of detecting the most important environmental impacts at a given region. We assessed if metrics derived from stream fish ...
Defining a fish bio-assessment tool to monitoring the biological condition of a cascade reservoirs system in tropical area
(Elsevier B.V., 2014-08-01)
We studied five tropical reservoirs in the cascade system of the Tiete River (State of Sao Paulo, Brazil) in order evaluate the suitability of a fish multimetric index (Reservoir Fish Assemblage Index-RFAI) as a bio-assessment ...
