Figure 1: A map of the study area on the Tallapoosa River, AL. Sampling
locations are indicated with filled, black circles.
Figure 2: Proportion by number of the sampled fish assemblage belonging
to each family collected from four sites on the Tallapoosa River, AL.
Site abbreviations are as defined in Table 1.
Figure 3: (a) Multidimensional scaling ordinations of CPE by site and
season for fishes captured from four sites in the Tallapoosa River. Site
abbreviations are as defined in Table 1. (b) The distribution of
permuted delta values from a multiresponse permutation procedure. The
dashed line to the left represents the observed delta.
Figure 4: Kendall’s tau correlations with nonmetric multidimensional
scaling ordination axes for individual species CPE data from the
Tallapoosa River upstream and downstream of Harris Dam. Species
abbreviations are as defined in Table 2 and dashed lines represent zero
on the MDS axes.
Figure 5: Site clusters based on between – and within – site
dissimilarity for sites on the Tallapoosa River, AL. Branches hang to
within-group dissimilarity while horizontal lines are positioned at
among-group dissimilarities. Site abbreviations are as defined in Table
1.
