Downstream Movements of Juvenile Alosids and Juvenile Fish Mortality Associated with the Annapolis Tidal Power Turbine, Field Report 1986
Introduction
Following an initial study of the downstream movements and mortality of juvenile alosids associated with passage through the Annapolis Royal Tidal Power Turbine (Stokesbury, 1985), an extensive investigation was carried out between August 1 and November 22, 1986. The objectives of this study were:
- To monitor the downstream migration of juvenile alosids;
- To monitor environmental cues that might trigger the migration;
- To obtain population estimates by capture-mark-recapture techniques;
- To determine the real causes and extent of turbine mortality.
