Here, a Conceptual Habitat Alteration Model for Ponding is developed to aid in evaluating the effects of impoundments on fish habitats. Fish communities present in rivers with low human impact and their broad environmental settings enable classification of European rivers into 15 macrohabitat types. These classifications, together with the estimated fish sensitivity to alteration of their habitat are used for assessing the impacts of six main barrier types (dams, weirs, sluices, culverts, fords, and ramps). Our results indicate that over 200,000 km or 10% of previously free-flowing river habitat has been altered due to impoundments. Although they appear less frequently, dams, weirs and sluices cause much more habitat alteration than the other types. Their impact is regionally diverse, which is a function of...

The biological structure of fish stocks, the length-frequency and aqe distributions during the period of study are described. The biomass of fish stocks was estimated by the "Swept Area Method "' .

This loss strongly depends on the biogeographical location and a type of impounding barrier. European rivers are disconnected by more than one million man-made barriers that physically limit or completely block aquatic species migration and contribute to the loss of freshwater habitats8. One of the pervasive effects of barriers is the one caused by impoundment, which directly modifies lotic (flowing) stretches of river into lentic (lake-like) habitats5. Depending on structure and composition of fish communities expected at the barrier location the biological consequences may vary. EU-wide analysis of fish communities observed at river sections with low human induced alteration resulted in a macrohabitat classification of European rivers into 15 river types with expected fish community structure. This set a...

In the Nordic multi-mesh gillnets 4528 fish belonging to 11 species, with the total weight of 149.5 kg, were caught. The total beach seine catch was 34348.9 kg, which in terms of the reservoir area of 64 ha amounted to biomass density 536.7 kg•ha-1. Of 11 species caught with the beach seine roach (Rutilus rutilus) was the most abundant species (485031 fish, 7578 individuals•ha-1) with the highest share in biomass (24283.4 kg, 70.7%). The average electric catch at two sampling sites in the Cybina River running in the reservoir bowl was 105 kg (which gave estimate of 2.6 ton in all), with a marked dominance of the roach, which constituted 65.4% of fish catch in weight and 93% in numbers. Taking under consideration the results of electrofishing the estimated fish density in the Malta Reservoir in 2008 could reach as much as 577.7 kg•ha-1. The proportion of predatory fish in the fish assemblage biomass was 20.1%.

Ramowa Dyrektywa Wodna określa ramy działania mające służyć poprawie jakości ekologicznej wód powierzchniowych Wspólnoty. Istotną rolę w ocenie stanu ekologicznego wód odgrywać mają elementy biologiczne, takie jak: fitoplankton, fitobentos, makrofity, bezkręgowce denne i ryby. W 2004 r. opracowano Europejski Wskaźnik Ichtiologiczny (European Fish Index, EFI), który w zamierzeniu miał zapewnić standardowe narzędzie wspomagające realizację Ramowej Dyrektywy Wodnej. Do sporządzenia i testowania wskaźnika EFI wykorzystano archiwalne dane z elektropołowów prowadzonych w rzekach kilkunastu krajów, przeważnie z Europy Zachodniej i Południowej. Możliwość zastosowania tak opracowanego wskaźnika EFI okazała się ograniczona do typów rzek przeważających w bazie danych stanowiących podstawę jego opracowania.
