This book was released on 1983 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report summarizes field investigations conducted at seven reservoirs in 1979 and 1980 to determine the effect of reservoir releases on tailwater biota. The study sites differ greatly in project purpose, depth of water release from the reservoir, and location and are representative of many U.S. Army Corps of Engineers reservoirs throughout the United States. Studies were conducted in tailwaters below both flood-control and peaking hydropower projects. Effects of reservoir discharge were most evident near the dams where environmental stress was most severe; farther downstream the effect were moderated. The invertebrate and fish communities in tailwaters were affected most by the temperature, volume, and timing of the discharges. High levels of iron and manganese occurred in most tailwaters, but their effects on invertebrates and fish were not addresed in this study. The numbers of invertebrate and fish species were largest in tailwaters of flood-control projects with warmwater release and smallest in tailwaters of large hydropower projects.

Book excerpt: This document presents a review of the often contradictory literature describing the effects of release waters on the tailwater environment and biota. The physical and chemical conditions found in tailwaters downstream from warmwater and coldwater discharge impoundments are compared and contrasted to those found in natural streams. Reservoir discharges modify the physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of the stream ecosystem. Physical and chemical characteristics in tailwaters are primarily determined by the depth, volume, and schedule of water releases. The magnitude of change is related to the type of reservoir and to the design and operation of outlet structures. The structure of the biotic community reflects the physical and chemical conditions existing in a particular tailwater. The community is composed of organisms, including nonnative species, that are adapted to this environment. The effects of the tailwater environment on the life history, physiology, and abundance of selected species are described.
