Abstract:The recent surge of anthropogenic activities like damming is causing a severe threat to the aquatic ecosystem. A scope of minimizing the degradation of biota exists by modifying the dam operation policy. This can be achieved by releasing a minimum environmental flow (EF), which further requires more scientific investigations. The present study investigated the impact of an interbasin transfer hydropower dam on the downstream habitat of an endangered fish species, Tor putitora, using an adaptive modelling frame… Show more
