文摘

Effects of road salts and biotic stressors were examined using aquatic communities. Increased concentrations of both salt types reduced zooplankton abundance and pH. High NaCl concentrations reduced American toad tadpole activity. High NaCl concentrations caused a trophic cascade, resulting in more phytoplankton. No interactive effects of road salts and biotic stressors were observed.
