Is it Worth the Money? The Functionality of Engineered Shallow Stream Banks as Habitat for Juvenile Fishes in Heavily Modified Water Bodies
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "River Research and Applications"
DOI: 10.1002/rra.3065
Abstract: Heavily modified water bodies (HMWB) are characterized by monotonous and straightened channel morphologies with high degrees of bank enforcement. They often lack shallow bank habitats, which are considered important for critical life stages of fishes.… read more here.
