In South Africa, anthropogenic pressures such as water over-abstraction, invasive species impacts, land-use change, pollution, and climate change have caused widespread deterioration of the health of river ecosystems. This comes at great cost to both

Benthic macroinvertebrates are commonly used to assess water quality and ecological condition of aquatic ecosystems and they form the basis of several biotic indices. Many of these biotic indices are based on rapid bioassessment protocols (RBP). The

Understanding the response of aquatic organisms to elevated water temperatures offers insight into the ecological consequences of climate change on riverine species. Upper thermal limits were determined for two riverine invertebrates, the amphipod Pa
