Endemic freshwater fish from semiarid environments are among the most threated species in world due to water overexploitation and habitat fragmentation problems. Stepped or pool-type fishways used worldwide reestablish longitudinal connectivity mitigate migration Many of them being installed planned rivers environments, however, very few studies about passage performance through has been carried out date on these regions. The present work focuses two potamodromous cyprinids endemic regions,...
With the aim of building more compact fishways and adapting them to field conditions improve their location by fish, it is common use turning pools, reducing longitudinal development construction. However, depending on design, pools may affect hydraulic performance fishway consequently fish passage. To study these phenomena, in a vertical slot different configurations submerged notches with bottom orifice types were assessed. Both studied using numerical 3D models via OpenFOAM, computational...
The rapid river flow variations due to hydropower production during peak demand periods, known as hydropeaking, causes several ecological impacts. In this study, we assessed the potential of an overhead cover and velocity-refuge structure in indoor flume indirect hydropeaking mitigation measure for cyprinid species Iberian barbel (Luciobarbus bocagei). We designed a lab-scale LUNKERS-type using two different materials which were used separately: Wood (opaque) acrylic (transparent), tested...

Las obras transversales en los ríos, aunque necesarias muchos casos, conllevan también impactos negativos de gran relevancia. Entre más destacados está la dificultad al movimiento longitudinal peces, necesario para desarrollar sus funciones vitales. Para mitigar este problema, una las soluciones utilizadas son escalas artesas. Dichas obras, además del diseño y ejecución cuidadosa, requieren evaluación que asegure su idoneidad. Con el objetivo estudiar dicha idoneidad, se ha analizado un caso...
The monitoring of river discharge is vital for the correct management water resources. A worldwide facility used measuring are flat-V gauging weirs. These structures consist a small weir, with triangular cross-section and flat “V”-shaped notch. Their extensive use consequence their utility in measurement both low high flow conditions. However, depending on size, local morphology can act as full or partial hydraulic barriers to fish migration. To give answer this question,...

La construcción de obras transversales en los cursos agua causa, entre otros aspectos, un gran impacto la continuidad longitudinal ecosistemas fluviales. Para paliarlo y permitir el libre desplazamiento fauna (especialmente peces) es frecuente pasos piscícolas. Sin embargo, a pesar haberse construido número durante las últimas décadas, son pocos casos que se ha evaluado su funcionalidad. Así, Confederación Hidrográfica del Duero, Grupo Ecohidráulica Aplicada (GEA) Universidad Valladolid e...
