Modeling Atlantic juvenile salmon behavior approaching downstream migration passage facility
Ecosystem fragmentation is a major threat to biodiversity and one of the main challenges for the conservation and restoration of aquatic environments. In aquatic ecosystems, human-induced longi-tudinal barriers, such as dams, are partly responsible for the decline in fish populations. The impact is e...

Ecosystem fragmentation is a major threat to biodiversity and one of the main challenges for the conservation and restoration of aquatic environments. In aquatic ecosystems, human-induced longi-tudinal barriers, such as dams, are partly responsible for the decline in fish populations. The impact is even greater on diadromous species with life cycles spanning marine and freshwater ecosystems. One of the most common means of restoring the continuity of watercourses is fish passage solutions (FPS), with variable effectiveness. The development of effective fish passage depends on unders-tanding the behavioral response to hydraulic conditions that may attract or repel fishes. While much attention has been paid to upstream passage solutions, knowledge is still lacking, especially for downstream passage. Most studies have focused on large dam structures with high powerhouse discharge. Yet, less studies have been conducted on dams with large reservoirs and low powerhouse discharges, despite these sites’ higher prevalence for relatively quiescent flows known to disorient fish. In this thesis, based on scientific knowledge and our results, we propose a new numerical tool for modeling the behavior of juvenile Atlantic salmon (known as smolt) during their downstream migration upstream of the Poutès dam (Allier, France).
