Around the world, there is an increasing desire, supported by national and regional policies
and legislation, to conserve or restore the ecological health and functioning of rivers and …

There is an increasing demand for tools to assist in the management of environmental flows
in rivers. Changes in river discharge act on biota through a hydraulic template, which is …

The assessment of links between ecology and physical habitat has become a major issue in
river research and management. Key drivers include concerns about the conservation …

We present an overview of a process-based modelling approach for predicting how change
in flow affects drift density, net rate of energy intake (NREI) and numbers of drift-feeding …

Length–weight relationships are a fundamental tool for assessing populations and
communities in fisheries science. Many researchers have collected length–weight data …

Ecological theory traditionally describes predator–prey interactions in terms of a law of mass
action in which the prey mortality rate depends on the density of predators and prey. This …

In this paper we review drift-feeding models for stream salmonids. We assess their historical
development and current state, and we propose areas for future research. Drift-feeding …

There is considerable interest in the use of 2D hydraulic models for the prediction of
instream habitat especially for complex hydraulic situations such as those found in braided …

Confluences are integral features in rivers characterized by complex 3D changes in flow
hydrodynamics and bed morphology and provide important ecological functions. This paper …

This report documents Version 4.2 of InSTREAM, including its formulation, software, and
application to research and management problems. InSTREAM is a simulation model …
