Multiple Lines of Evidence for the Beneficial Effects of Environmental Flows in Two Lowland Rivers in Victoria, Australia
The aim of this study was to identify whether environmental flows released into two lowland rivers (the Glenelg and Wimmera Rivers, western Victoria, Australia) during the spring to autumn period had successfully ameliorated the negative effects of multiple human impacts. Macroinvertebrates and a range of physico-chemical variables were sampled from three reaches in each river. Both rivers were...
متن کاملChanges in Environmental Flow Components under the Effect of Sabalan Dam in the Qarehsou River of Ardebil Province
Sustaining environmental flows to preserve biodiversity of aquatic plant and animal species, as well as constancy of water for human communities, is essential in many river ecosystems. On the other hand, hydrological changes caused by the dam and its related environmental problems have provoked many concerns for hydrologists, ecologists and policymakers. Therefore, the main aim of this research...
متن کاملAllocation of river flows for restoration of floodplain forest ecosystems: a review of approaches and their applicability in Europe.
Floodplain forests are flood-dependent ecosystems. They rely on well-timed, periodic floods for the provision of regeneration sites and on tapered flood recession curves for the successful establishment of seedlings. These overbank flood events are described as "regeneration flows." Once floodplain forest trees are established, in order to grow they also require adequate, although variable, riv...
متن کاملWater quality zoning of Vishwamitri River to access environmental flow requirements through aggregation of water quality index
Environmental flow requirements, to maintain the functioning of freshwater-dependent ecosystems and restore rivers in ecologically acceptable conditions, depend upon the present water quality status of the river. Various stretches of Vishwamitri River vary in quality and quantity. Water quality index is a tool to converse information regarding water quality of various stretches of river and can...
متن کاملChaotic Analysis and Prediction of River Flows
Analyses and investigations on river flow behavior are major issues in design, operation and studies related to water engineering. Thus, recently the application of chaos theory and new techniques, such as chaos theory, has been considered in hydrology and water resources due to relevant innovations and ability. This paper compares the performance of chaos theory with Anfis model and discusses ...
