Impact of Dams on Stream Fish Diversity: A Different Result

چکیده

Impoundments can drastically change the physical and biological characteristics of fluvial systems. Changes in characteristics, such as reductions flow, increased sediment deposition, surface area, often influence system’s components, including plant, macroinvertebrate, fish assemblages. In addition to having direct effects on impounded waterbodies, impoundments also have wide-ranging at watershed scale, particularly upstream tributary streams. The purpose this study was assess magnitude these effects. We analyzed historical data from 26 streams distributed across five sub-basins Bluff Hills region Yazoo Basin, MS, USA. All major rivers are by large (11,240–26,143 hectares) reservoirs for flood control. compared assemblages located downstream four using PERMANOVA, contrary expectations, we found no significant differences between explore several possible explanations discrepancy suggest that stream assemblage response impoundment may be nuanced regional species pool, history conditions watershed, resistance periodic disturbances.

Effects of Small Dams on Cold Water Stream Fish Communities

—Dams provide many benefits to society, yet they have profound impacts on aquatic ecosystems. In addition to blocking fish migration, small surface-release dams on coldwater streams generally increase water temperature below the dam. The goal of this study was to evaluate how small, surface-release dams affect fish communities, separating the total effect into components related to fragmentatio...

Influence of Stream channel morphology and in-stream habitats on fish community in Golestan province Streams

Four streams with different sizes were selected for studying the effects of environmental factors on fish assemblages using indirect (Detrended Correspondence Analysis, DCA) and direct (Redundancy Analysis, RDA) gradient analysis in Golestan province. DCA of presence-absence and relative abundance data showed well gradient and linear model of species variability. In the within-site RDA, environ...
