The effects of surface geology and stream size on freshwater mussel (Bivalvia, Unionidae) distribution in southeastern Michigan, U.S.A.
Abstract
Stream size and surface geology are the two major environmental features thai control the distributions of the thirty‐four species of unionid mussels living in the streams of southeastern Michigan. Surface geology, a previously unrecognized factor in the ecology of freshwater mussels, acts lo regulate the hydrology, slope and turbidity of streams in the study area. Reciprocal averaging ordinations are used to aid the description of the habitats occupied by each mussel species.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
