Hydropower production is a key electricity generation technology in many parts of the world
which can play a significant role in the transition towards a green and clean energy system …

We assessed the effect of a hydropeaking diversion mitigation measure that allows for
additional hydropower production, which markedly reduced hydropeaking on a 10‐km …

Hydropeaking due to hydropower production can have negative impacts on aquatic fauna.
One of the mechanisms for causing impacts on fish and aquatic macroinvertebrates is linked …

During flood events, river topography and fluvial habitats can change drastically, potentially
affecting the ecological status. In case of multiple floods, whether each single event modifies …

Hydropeaking is known for its adverse impacts on river ecosystems. However, the
implementation of mitigation measures is still largely pending due to conflicting priorities of …

An increase in the demand for renewable energy is driving hydropower development and its
integration with variable renewable energy sources. When hydropower is produced flexibly …

Hydropeaking caused by small‐scale hydropower plants creates rapid changes in the
intensity, frequency, and persistence of river flows. These changes can induce stress in fish …

Hydropeaking is one of the most severe pressures of hydropower on aquatic ecosystems.
The discharge fluctuations due to turbine operations cause frequent shifts in hydraulic …

Fish stranding in rivers, due to rapid shoreline dewatering, often occurs during the down‐
ramping phase of hydropeaks, which enables peak energy production. Multiple …

Bare gravel bed channels have been a common landscape feature of the middle reaches of
rivers throughout Japan. They are disappearing these days because of vegetation …
