Channel Processes and form Near the Tidal Limit
… tides. Where sufficiently strong tides occur, a tidal wave will enter the river mouth and advance upstream until it dissipates due to bottom friction and downstream flow. It follows that near the upstream extent of tidal influence along a river channel, freshwater currents transition from fully …

Downstream change in channel hydraulics along the River Severn, UK
… parameters between the source and the near-tidal limit of the River Severn, UK. Field measurements were made at 25 logarithmically-spaced sites along the Severn, under 3 flow conditions (low, medium and high) defined by exceedence frequencies. A flow event, occurring between 15-24 February …

Movement ecology of two threatened anadromous species, twaite shad Alosa fallax and sea lamprey Petromyzon marinus, revealed by acoustic telemetry.
… by multiple weirs in a cumulative manner, which limited their spawning to atypical habitat. The results also demonstrated the crucial roles of tides and elevated discharge events in enabling weir passage. Exploratory downstream movements made by sea lamprey during delays at weirs represented a …
