1 Macroinvertebrate Response to a Gradient of Hydrologic Connectivity within the Lower Mississippi River and Its Floodplain AUDREY B HARRISON, CLIFFORD A OCHS, WILLIAM T SLACK, K JACK KILLGORE, CATHERINE E MURPHY

2 Hydrologic Connectivity Floodplain Water Bodies Secondary Channels

3 Water body Classification

4 LMR BATTURE HABITATS High Connectivity Low connectivity

5 What are the effects of hydrologic connectivity on biota?

6 Benthic Macroinvertebrates Relatively immobile Year-round residents Habitat specialists Specific environmental requirements Most lifespans = 1 year Occupy many functional and trophic niches Integral in riverine food web

7 Study Area All water body types sampled seasonally (4 times per year) One sampling year (Fall Summer 2015)

8 Methods Modified Benthic Sled Petite Ponar Grab Ekman Grab

9 Methods Benthic Sled Ponar Harrison et al., in peer review

14 Secondary Channels >100 naturally occurring secondary channels in LMR Occur where river cuts around an island Variable in size, shape, habitat features, and vegetation Often connect river to floodplain

15 Flow Alteration CLOSURE DIKES placed at upstream end to direct water into main channel Keeps main channel deep enough for navigation Reduces the need for dredging
