“…Likewise, in fish behaviour studies, responses to changing flows have often been investigated at the individual level both in laboratory flumes (Valentin et al, 1994;Debowski and Beall, 1995;Bradford, 1997;Huntingford et al, 1999;Vehanen et al, 2000) and in (semi-)natural settings (Pert and Erman, 1994;Shirvell, 1994;Matheney and Rabeni, 1995;Valentin et al, 1996;Armstrong et al, 1998;Bunt et al, 1999;Saltveit et al, 2001;Scruton et al, 2003). Individual-based approaches, therefore, seem to be preferable in flow impact assessment and fish conservation initiatives (Pert and Erman, 1994).…”
