The present status of large reservoir fisheries and their management in large reservoirs in South America are reviewed. There is a brief discussion about reservoir typology, and how most of it is inappropriate to fish. ...

This paper investigates the validity of a simplified equivalent reservoir representation of a multi-reservoir hydroelectric system for modelling its optimal operation for power maximization. This simplification, proposed ...

Copepod assemblages from two cascade reservoirs were analyzed during two consecutive years. The upstream reservoir (Chavantes) is a storage system with a high water retention time (WRT of 400 days), and the downstream one ...

A series of eleven reservoirs was constructed in the Paranapanema River, southeast Brazil, for hydropower production. The phytoplankton structure and its relations with the environmental variables were studied in two of ...

Measurements of biotic homogenization are important for ascertaining the nature and extent of human impacts on biodiversity, especially in relation to habitat alteration, species introductions and water quality degradation. ...

The effects of hydropeaking of the Rapel Hydropower Plant on the hydrodynamics of the reservoir were investigated by combining field measurements and three-dimensional simulations performed with the Centre for Water ...
