Abstract:Unnatural changes in river flow patterns resulting from peak‐operating hydropower plants adversely impact freshwater ecosystems. In particular, the rapid dewatering of shoreline habitats during artificial flow down‐ramping puts early fish life stages at a high risk of becoming stranded if they fail to follow receding water levels in time. While extensive research has been conducted on the effects of hydropeaking on salmonid species, there is limited knowledge on the diverse cyprinid family, particularly on vul… Show more
