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 …

Use of Cylindrical Bristle Clusters as a novel multispecies fish pass to facilitate upstream movement at gauging weirs
Research Article University of Southampton have developed a new Cylindrical Bristle Cluster (CBC) fish pass that is installed on gauging weirs to enhance passability for fish by reducing drag without impacting weir function.
