Biological indices based on benthic macroinvertebrates - Sélune Observatory
As part of the Sélune observatory, pilot stations have been set up along the main course of the Sélune, distributed from upstream to downstream of the hydroelectric dams. Three stations are located in the former reservoirs of the dams, while the other two, known as the reference stations, are outside the area of influence of the former dams (one downstream and the other upstream). At these stations, aquatic biocenoses (including benthic macroinvertebrates, biofilms, macrophytes, etc.) are monitored.
At each of these stations, benthic macroinvertebrates (bmi) have been sampled regularly, in spring and autumn, since September 2014 and in accordance with standard NF T 90-333. The fauna inventories obtained after determination can thus be used to calculate biotic indices such as the IBG-DCE and the I2M2.
In addition, samples were taken using artificial substrates immersed for 1 month, in order to focus on measuring the ‘dam effect’. The protocol is described in: Piscart C., Moreteau, J.C., Beisel J.N. (2006). Monitoring changes in freshwater macroinvertebrate communities along a salinity gradient using artificial substrates. Environmental Monitoring and Assessment 116: 529-542.
This layer gives the results obtained for the IBG-DCE and I2M2 biotic indices with the associated parameters (diversity, variety, etc.), as well as the number of samples taken (‘effort’ column). Finally, the layer contains the output from the ‘ODInvertebres’ diagnostic tool for benthic invertebrates, which aims to identify the most likely anthropogenic pressures causing changes in ecological quality (6 probability values for physico-chemical water quality and 6 others relating to hydromorphology or land use in the catchment area).

The genus Baetis cited in the fauna lists refers to the genus ‘Baetis lato sensu’ according to the SANDRE nomenclature (Sandre code: 9794).
Taxa presenting all of the clearly visible and characteristic morphological criteria enabling them to be accurately identified and in an irreproachable state of conservation are included in the Observatoire Sélune's reference collection. This can be consulted on request (see point of contact).

- Statement
-
Based on the fauna lists and abundances obtained in accordance with standard NF T90-388 (December 2020), the IBG-DCE and I2M2 indices and the outputs of the ‘ODInvertbres’ diagnostic tool are calculated using scripts from the Système d'évaluation de l'état des eaux (SEEE).
The list of fields presented in this dataset is specified in the associated catalogue.
