CASE STUDY: DEVELOPING A LOW-COST FISH PASSAGE SOLUTION TO MITIGATE FOR ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTS OF WEIRS

  Daniella Montali-Ashworth commenced her CDT-SIS studentship project by adapting a theoretical concept related to fluid dynamics interactions with aquatic plants to better understand fluid mechanics associated with a cylindrical cluster of bristles. From the desk, she moved into the laboratory to test her assumptions, before moving into a highly interdisciplinary realm to explore how …

Developing a low-cost fish passage solution for gauging weirs

PhD Thesis Montali-Ashworth, D. (Creator), Vowles, A. (Supervisor), Kemp, P. (Supervisor), De Almeida, G. (Supervisor) Publisher: University of Southampton Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences, Water and Environmental Engineering Group PhD Awarded: 25 June 2020 Abstract Fluvial habitat connectivity is essential for the transfer of energy, materials and organisms along rivers. In-river barriers (such as dams and weirs) disrupt the river continuum, causing …
