Colonization and succession of invertebrate communities in a new stream in Glacier Bay National Park, Alaska
SUMMARY 1. Invertebrate colonization of a new stream following glacial recession is documented for a 12 year period from 1978 to 1990. 2. Invertebrates, particularly Chironomidae, displayed site‐specific temporal succession over the study period, at the end of which a number of the pioneer colonizer...
