Defining flows to protect instream biota : a critique of the instream flow incremental methodology and the development of a hierarchical habitat-based approach, using the pennant-tailed catlet, Chiloglanis anoterus in the Marite River, South Africa
… thesis focusses on two approaches to determining Instream Flow Requirements (IFR) for regulated rivers, specifically in the sub-tropical eastern region of South Afiica using a flow-sensitive fish species, the pennant-tailed catlett 07iloglanis anoterus. In response to the diminishing and altered …

Ecohydrologic Indicators of Low-flow Habitat Availability in Eleven Virginia Rivers
… and competition for freshwater is threatening instream uses including ecosystem services and aquatic habitat. A standard method of evaluating impacts of alternative water management scenarios on instream habitat is Instream Flow Incremental Methodology (IFIM). The primary outputs of IFIM …

The effect of depth-velocity correlations on aquatic physical habitat usability estimates
Recent developments in instream flow evaluations have resulted in a variety of assessment methodologies. Of these, the Instream Flow Incremental Methodology permitted consideration of both physical habitat parameters (e.g., depth, velocity, substrate and temperature) and preferences for certain …

Developing Habitat Suitability Criteria for Individual Species and Habitat Guilds in the Shenandoah River Basin
… perplexing challenge when selecting species for Instream Flow Incremental Methodology (IFIM) studies. An often-suggested approach has been to use habitat guilds to incorporate the diversity found in these systems. My goal is to determine the feasibility of developing habitat suitability criteria …
