Abstract:1) Microbial communities in the hyporheic zone (HZ) are important in self-purification as the riverbed is metabolically active and responsible for the retention, storage and mineralisation of organic matter transported to the surface water. However, studies exploring HZ microbial community responses to disturbances (e.g. floods) remain scarce. 2) Here, we characterised the microbial community structure among the three (downwelling, upwelling and intermediate) HZ points within and among gravel bars at high and … Show more
