“…For instance, the low flow recruitment hypotheses (LFRH) postulate that periods of low flow when water temperatures and prey densities are high can be advantageous to small-bodied fishes that produce multiple clutches of planktonic (suspended by currents) or demersal (sinking) ova during a protracted summer spawning season (Humphries, King, & Koehn, 1999). Dryland river studies have found that small-bodied fish recruitment is unrelated to flow (Hoagstrom, Archdeacon, Davenport, Propst, & Brooks, 2014), recruitment is most successful at intermediate flows (Moore & Thorp, 2008), or that exceptionally low flow periods are detrimental to recruitment for some populations (Durham & Wilde, 2009;Perkin, Gido, Costigan, Daniels, & Johnson, 2015;.
