DATA - Meta-analysis on the impacts of dams and reservoirs on fish biodiversity

These databases contain information from published studies used to perform a meta-analysis on the impacts of dams and reservoirs on fish biodiversity and fish assemblages. The studies were compiled from journal indexed in Web of Science Core collection, BIOSIS citation index, Current Content Connect, Data citation Index, SciELO Citation index and Zoological records databases from Thomson ISI's Web of Science and Google Scholar (peer-reviewed articles, textbooks and reports). This EXCEL file contains two databases; one longitudinal studies (LD) database and associated metadata and one cross-sectional (CS) database with associated metadata.
