The current understanding of the effects of turbulence on the swimming performance of fish
is primarily derived from laboratory experiments under pressurised flow swim tunnels and …

Fishes suspended in water are subject to the complex nature of three-dimensional flows.
Often, these flows are the result of abiotic and biotic sources that alter otherwise uniform …

Turbulence is a complex phenomenon which commonly occurs in river and fishway flows. It
is a difficult subject to study, especially biologically, yet turbulence may affect fish …

Anthropogenic structures in rivers are major threats for fish migration and effective mitigation
is imperative given the worldwide expansion of such structures. Fish behaviour is strongly …

A simple relationship for the inanga Galaxias maculatus swimming velocity is suggested and
tested in low and high turbulence channels. The relationship connects the swimming …

Several vertical slot fishways have been built in France over the last 20 years. This type of
pool fish pass is generally very effective in ensuring passage of the target species …

Over the past century, many ideas have been developed on the relationships between water
flow and the structure and shape of the body and fins of fishes, largely during swimming in …

Fishways are hydraulic structures that allow passage of fish across obstructions in rivers.
Vertical slot fishways—VSFs—are considered the most efficient and least selective type of …

This paper presents the main results of an experimental study of mean and turbulent
characteristics of flow in a scale model of a vertical slot fish pass with varying width and …

The kinematics of hydrodynamic turbulent flows developed in vertical slot fishways (VSF)
was studied in detail in flow patterns not yet published to date for the purposes of modifying …
