Salinity gradient in the mánamo river,a dammed distributary of the Orinoco Delta, and its influence on the presence of eichhornia crassipes and paspalum repens

Resumen en: We describe a saline gradient established by the damming of the Manamo River, a former freshwater environment, in the Orinoco Delta and the influence o...
