Automated fluvial hydromorphology mapping from airborne remote sensing
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Mapping fluvial hydromorphology is an important part of defining river habitat. Mappingvia field sampling or hydraulic modelingis however time consuming, and mappinghydromorphology directly from remote sensing data may ... -
Biotic and abiotic determinants of the ascent behaviour of adult Atlantic salmon transiting passable waterfalls
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)The spawning migration of Atlantic salmon has been characterized by tracking salmon carrying electronic tags as they ascend rivers, but still little is known about how natural obstacles such as waterfalls influence migratory ... -
A complete homogenization of water temperatures duringwidespread flooding
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Thermal regimes can vary substantially across small geographic distances in rivers,and the factors responsible for creating a diverse thermal landscape can operate onmultiple spatial and temporal extents. This short ... -
Habitat fragmentation has interactive effects on the population genetic diversity and individual behaviour of a freshwater salmonid fish
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Sufficient genetic diversity can aid populations to persist in dynamic and fragmented environments. Understanding which mechanisms regulate genetic diversity of riverine fish can therefore advance current conservation ... -
Impacts of a weir and power station on downstream migrating Atlantic salmon smolts in a German river
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Weirs are barriers built across rivers for a wide range of other purposes than hydropower production. Like hydropower installations, weirs can negatively impact fish migrations. Downstream migration and mortality of Atlantic ... -
Optimal approach for upstream fish passage design: One-size-fits-all or made-to-order?
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)Nearly 60,000 large dams (higher than 15 m) occur worldwide in addition to an estimated16 million smaller impoundments with individual surface areas larger than 100 m2.Theresulting habitat fragmentation threatens global ...
