The influence of flow management and habitat improvement works on fish communities in Yorkshire rivers (2017)
Thesis
Taylor, M. J. (2017). The influence of flow management and habitat improvement works on fish communities in Yorkshire rivers. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4219669

Many of the rivers in the UK are heavily modified by channelisation, impoundment (dams and weirs and off-river storages), land drainage and flood defence. These modifications have reduced the natural variability of flow and habitat diversity and in t...

Factors affecting Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) in the Mersey catchment, North West England, and the potential for a recolonisation (2015)
Thesis
Billington, S. (2015). Factors affecting Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) in the Mersey catchment, North West England, and the potential for a recolonisation. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4218430

Salmon became locally extinct from the River Mersey, northwest England, during the 1950s – 1970s due to deterioration in water quality and man-made barriers. Stray salmon began entering the River Mersey in the 1990s but a self sustaining population h...

In the past few years there has been a resurgence of interest in hydropower as a direct consequence of the UK government’s commitment to renewable energy and associated financial incentives. The majority of new schemes are run-of-river, which have no... Read More about Implications of small-scale run-of-river hydropower schemes on fish populations in Scottish streams.

Applications of fish scale analysis to understand growth dynamics of fish populations (2012)
Thesis
Taylor, R. J. (2012). Applications of fish scale analysis to understand growth dynamics of fish populations. (Thesis). University of Hull. Retrieved from https://hull-repository.worktribe.com/output/4212921

The use of hard structures to derive ecological information about fish populations is a fundamental tool in fisheries assessment, specifically the back-calculation of fish lengths. This study highlights the potential errors associated with correction... Read More about Applications of fish scale analysis to understand growth dynamics of fish populations.
