Can i know about the different universal macrophyte indices that can be used for reserviors or slow/non flowing water?
May be you could have a look to the works of Jacques Haury in France (for macrophyte indices, but used in rivers) and in the two following references (In french). It could be useful.
1. Haury J., Dutartre A., Peltre M.-C., 2008. Le groupement d’intérêt scientifique « Macrophytes des eaux continentales ». N° spécial Ingénieries E.A.T – Plantes aquatiques d’eau douce : biologie, écologie et gestion : 7-8.
2. Haury J., Muller S., 2008. 4 – Les communautés de macrophytes : typologie, dynamique et production. N° spécial Ingénieries E.A.T – Plantes aquatiques d’eau douce : biologie, écologie et gestion : 37-50.
Good work

Here's one of more limited than universal scope:
