A qualitative evaluation of a community‐based approach to protected area law enforcement
People and Nature, EarlyView.Abstract People living in and around terrestrial and marine protected areas can contribute to protected area law enforcement in different ways. While the involvement of local residents is considered important for bringing benefits to both conservation and people, evaluations of community‐based approaches to protected area law enforcement are limited ...

River‐Scale Evaluation of a Floating LED Light Array for Behavioral Guidance of American Eel
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Exploiting the sensory physiology of migratory fishes to guide them away from hazards like hydroelectric turbines is of interest to regulatory agencies and hydropower operators to achieve conservation and management goals. Here we describe a river‐scale experiment where out‐migrating adult American eel (Anguilla rostrata) were tracked ...

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The presumptive standards approach to environmental flows offers a method to develop interim guidelines for ecological and social‐cultural flow needs. The approach is based on deriving acceptable percent‐of‐flow limits based on naturalised flows (the absence of depletion or alteration of flow), and it can be an effective precursor to a full ...

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In France, it is estimated that shads (Alosa spp.) have lost 69% of their historical range, mainly due to disrupted river connectivity. After an absence of one century, signs of their return in the Seine River have been recorded over the past two decades: adult and juvenile specimens have been caught by anglers or recorded at video‐counting ...

Effects of Sediment‐Control Operations on Fish and Macroinvertebrate Communities in Dam Reservoirs
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Sediments are avoided in many river and dam managements because of their adverse effects on water usage and flood control. Recently, sedimentation control measures, including sluicing, have been employed to manage sediments in river channels and restore communities in dammed rivers.

River Ice Processes Modelling: A Comprehensive Review
River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT River ice strongly influences hydrology, hydrodynamics, and ecosystems in cold regions, with an impact on flooding, hydropower generation, navigation, and aquatic habitats. Modeling river ice processes is therefore essential for both scientific understanding and operational management.
