  2. 1. Re-establishment of connectivity for fish populations in regulated rivers

    Author : Olle Calles; Larry Greenberg; Lars Nyberg; David Scruton; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Attraction efficiency; Connectivity; Flow regime; Hyporheic water quality; Nature-like fishway; Passage efficiency; Regulated river; Remedial measures; Salmo trutta; Biology; Biologi; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : The hydropower industry has altered connectivity in many rivers during the last century. Many fish species depend on both an intact longitudinal connectivity to be able to migrate between spawning, feeding and winter habitats, and vertical connectivity for development and survival of incubating embryos and larvae in the gravel.

  4. 2. Habitat compensation in nature-like fishways : Effects on benthos and fish

    Author : Stina Gustafsson; Olle Calles; Martin Österling; Jostein Skurdal; Paul Giller; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Biocanal; biodiversity; brown trout; freshwater pearl mussel; functional feeding groups; habitat heterogeneity; large woody debris; macroinvertebrates; PIT-tag; salmonids; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : The construction of nature-like fishways has become an increasingly common measure to restore longitudinal connectivity in streams and rivers affected by hydroelectric development. These fishways also have the potential to function as habitat compensation measures when running waters have been degraded or lost. READ MORE

  5. 3. The Macroinvertebrate Community in a Nature-like Fishway with Habitat Compensation Properties

    Author : Stina Gustafsson; Olle Calles; Martin Österling; Jostein Skurdal; John Brittain; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; nature-like fishway; biodiversity; macroinvertebrates; functional feeding groups; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : Nature-like fishways are often constructed to restore connectivity in streams exploited for hydropower. They also have the potential to compensate for important habitats that have been degraded or lost. READ MORE

  6. 4. Modeling Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and brown trout (Salmo trutta) responses to river habitat alteration

    Author : Kristine Lund Bjørnås; John Piccolo; Olle Calles; Steven F. Railsback; Leif Asbjørn Vøllestad; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Ecohydraulics; Restoration; Natural resource management; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : Half the world’s river volume is affected by flow alterations and/or fragmentation, a figure that is likely to increase with the current global surge in hydropower development. At the same time, freshwater biodiversity is in rapid decline. READ MORE

  7. 5. Atlantic salmon in regulated rivers : Migration, dam passage, and fish behavior

    Author : Daniel Nyqvist; Larry Greenberg; Theodore Castro-Santos; Olle Calles; Scott Hinch; Karlstads universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; fish migration; fish passage; downstream migration; kelt; smolt; Biology; Biologi;

    Abstract : Hydropower dams block migration routes and disrupt longitudinal connectivity in rivers, thereby posing a threat to migratory fish species. Various fish passage solutions have been implemented to improve connectivity with varying success. READ MORE
