This is the first study to demonstrate river 31 flow impacts on the migration success of wild salmonid smolts at small weirs. Because small weirs 32 are common in rivers and because spring-summer low flow periods may become more frequent with 33 climate change (based on UKCIP09 models) and altered river hydrology, further research and 34 improved management is needed to reduce the impacts of low river flows in combination with low-35 head weirs on salmonid smolt migration. 36
