Title Integrating Empirical Geomorphology, CAD and 2-D Hydraulic Models as Design Tools for Salmonid Spawning Gravel Rehabilitation Projects
Creator Wheaton, Joseph M. Pasternack, G. B. Mertz, J. E.
Description Recent salmon restoration and rehabilitation efforts have focused on reintroducing spawning gravels to rivers whose sediment supplies have been blocked or altered by dams, land-use changes and altered flow regimes. Few of these projects have considered the fluvial processes that govern how spawning habitat can be created, enhanced and maintained given the finite supply of spawning gravels introduced by such projects. Reach scale 2-D hydraulic models could solve this problem, as they have...
