We carry out a thermodynamic analysis to an organism. It is applicable any type of organism because (1) it based on formalism all open systems and (2) uses general model describe the internal structure organism---the dynamic energy budget (DEB) model. Our results thermodynamics DEB organisms are following. Thermodynamic constraints for following types organisms: (a) aerobic exothermic, (b) anaerobic (c) endothermic; showing that have higher flexibility. A way compute changes in enthalpy...
Hydroelectricity demand is still growing due to its reduced carbon impact and strong dispatchability. Concurrently, the necessity support self-sustainable fish populations in a cost-effective way restore water-related ecosystems urgent. The impacts of rapid artificial flow fluctuations caused by peak electricity demand, i.e., hydropeaking, on fauna are largely unknown, particularly for cyprinid species. Flow-refuges (e.g., lateral deflectors) believed help with rapidly changing flows high...
