Instream habitat assessment: a geomorphological approach
thesis
posted on 2018-05-11, 10:53 authored by Ian P. MaddockInstream habitat assessment methods are required to evaluate the biological quality
of streams in relation to flow and channel morphology and to distinguish the effects
of river management on the instream biota. A range of techniques are described and
developed in this study ranging from a simple reconnaissance survey to the detailed
Physical Habitat Simulation Model (PHABSIM) in order to establish a method for
the classification of river channels, identification of key parameters that determine
the biota and assessment of the influence of flow and bed morphology on habitat
availability. [Continues.]
