Hydropower is commonly considered a renewable energy source. Nevertheless, this does
not imply an absence of impacts on the riverine ecosystem, the extent of which is expected …

As the share of renewable energy grows worldwide, flexible energy production from peak-
operating hydropower and the phenomenon of hydropeaking have received increasing …

Low-order streams contribute to the abiotic and biotic character of large rivers and are
renowned for harboring unique forms of aquatic flora and fauna. However, most studies on …

As the global demand for renewable electricity grows, hydropower development of river
basins increases across the world. Hydropeaking, ie, streamflow alteration consisting of …

Hydropeaking has become a global issue because of extensive hydropower dam
