Instream Flow Science for Sustainable River Management
Concerns for water resources have inspired research developments to determine the ecological effects of water withdrawals from rivers and flow regulation below dams, and to advance tools for determining the flows required to sustain healthy riverine ecosystems. This paper reviews the advances of this environmental flows science over the past 30 years since the introduction of the Instream Flow ...
متن کاملHabitat Simulation Technique as a Powerful Tool for Instream Flow Needs Assessment and River Ecosystem Management
Instream flow needs (IFN) assessment studies are performed to provide guidelines for stream water management and to assess the impacts of different water projects such as weirs, dams and stream diversions on the available fish habitat. The physical habitat simulation is one of the IFN assessment methods and also a powerful tool in management of river ecosystem that has not become a common metho...
متن کاملScience & Research Series N0.16 Flow Management in the Tongariro River
The Tongariro River supports a world renowned trout fishery and a nationally important hydroelectric power scheme which has caused profound changes to the river's flow regime and some minor changes to its fishery. Specifications for the regulated compensation flow in the lower river, whilst originally intended to protect the fishery, constrain electricity generation and fail to address all requ...
متن کاملMesoHABSIM: A concept for application of instream flow models in river restoration planning
This paper describes the methodological concept for application of physical habitat models to restoration planning at a whole river scale. The design proposed here builds upon the Instream Flow Incremental Methodology but is focused at the need for managing large-scale habitats and river systems. It modifies the data acquisition technique and analytical resolution of standard approaches, changi...
متن کاملA Dynamic Model for Sustainable River Basin Management
The European Water Framework Directive (WFD) introduced an integrated perspective in water resources management, based on an approach where the river basin is the management unit and the active involvement of all affected parties by its river basin management plan is clearly encouraged. The integrated perspective is required to develop sustainable resource management strategies adapted to the i...
