This study aims to investigate the upstream movement patterns of potamodromous fish
species using multi-annual monitoring of modern multi-species fish passes in two medium …

The pool-type fishway, such as pool-weir, vertical-slot, and rock-weir fishways, is one of the
most common fishways that presented the highest efficiency for all fish species …

Nature‐based approaches to flood risk management are increasing in popularity. Evidence
for the effectiveness at the catchment scale of such spatially distributed upstream measures …

In Austria, more than a half of all electricity is produced with the help of hydropower plants.
To reduce their ecological impact, dams are being equipped with fish passages that support …

Rivers of the large Alpine valleys constitute iconic ecosystems that are highly threatened by
multiple anthropogenic stressors. This stressor mix, however, makes it difficult to develop …

Adequately designed vertical slot fishways (VSF) mitigate the impact of anthropogenic
obstructions on fish migrations. Until now, most studies on VSF were conducted focusing on …

Fishways are installed worldwide to facilitate accessibility to functional habitats and to
increase the ecological continuity of rivers. Their evaluations are increasing, but complete …

Rivers are very vulnerable to fragmentation caused by the presence of man-made barriers.
To restore river basin connectivity, numerous indices have been developed to calculate river …

The presence of small weirs, far more numerous than dams, has increased habitat
fragmentation on rivers worldwide. This study aims to evaluate the upstream passage …

A river is an ecosystem where fish fauna represents an important structural element. To re-
establish connectivity, it is imperative to allow movement between functional habitats. Due to …
