Intermittent storage hydropower production is the only renewable source offering both a sufficient storage potential and a high temporal flexibility in production to ensure grid stability. However, hydropeaking (generation of peak discharges by hydroelectric operation) causes fluctuations in the wetted width, water depth, flow velocity, and bottom shear stress downstream of a hydroelectric facility...
This study assessed the effects of hydrological events on aquatic communities at the mesohabitat scale (pool, run, and riffle) in the high Andean region. Four headwater sites located in the Zhurucay microcatchment (southern Ecuador), with elevations higher than 3,500 m, were selected and monitored considering in each site a 50‐m‐long reach and within each reach five cross sections. In each of these...
The thermal regime is a key consideration for instream flow management as the ecological integrity of river ecosystems relies on the natural dynamics of temperature range and spatiotemporal characteristics. Climate change can alter thermal regimes and influence water temperatures. This study aims to investigate probable impacts of climate change (predicted changes in meteorological forcing variables)...
