In 1972, the United States Congress enacted § 316 (b) the Clean Water Act, which
mandates minimization of the adverse impacts of entrainment and im**ement of fish and …

Fluid-dynamic transport and mixing processes affect birth, death, immigration and
emigration rates in kelp forests, and can modulate broader community interactions. In the …

Fundamental knowledge of mortality during the planktonic phase of the typical marine life
cycle is essential to understanding population dynamics and managing marine resources …

Predicting connectivity patterns in systems with fluid transport requires descriptions of the
spatial distribution of propagules. In contrast to research on terrestrial seed dispersal, where …

Dispersion of planktonic propagules connects shoreline populations of many marine
species, and considerable effort has been directed at understanding this process. However …

Withdrawal of fish eggs and larvae through a river intake (entrainment) may damage the
river's early fish resources. To investigate how the hydraulics (flow velocities, directions, and …

Effective evaluation of technological and operational approaches to reduce entrainment of
marine organisms at cooling water intake structures (CWIS) requires accurate organism …

Fish protection screens are being increasingly applied to prevent fish entrainment at water
diversions and intakes. Screen success is thought to depend upon selecting the most …

Water diversions worldwide may entrain or im**e fish and have population‐level impacts,
but barriers like fish screens can reduce such threats. Traditional barriers are ineffective in …
