The current approaches often fail to take into consideration a basic fundamental principle, that the integrity of the river ecosystem is largely determined by the natural dynamic character of their flow regimes. In this synthesis, we try to explain how the maintenance of the natural flow regime ...

DOR is an estimate of how a dam or set of dams alter the natural flow regime for downstream river reaches. It is the proportion of a river’s annual flow that can be withheld by a reservoir or cluster of reservoirs. We calculated it using the definition from Grill et al.3 with the ...

Natural flow regime plays a major role in sustaining native biodiversity and ecosystem integrity in rivers (Poff et al., 1997). Streamflow regime alteration may also affect aquatic organisms, sediment movement and floodplain interactions (Gibson et al., 2005). Characterization of flow regime has ...
Hydroelectric power plants fundamentally alter the natural flow regime of streams and rivers by inducing a high-frequency (daily/sub-daily) and high-intensity (two to tenfold or greater increases in discharge) disturbance known as “hydropeaking” (HP) (Valentin et al., 1995; Vehanen et al....
These statistics directly measure components of the natural flow regime such as streamflow magnitude, duration and rate of change, frequency, and timing (Poff et al., 1997). Table 1. Seven Fundamental Daily Streamflow Statistics (FDSS) Used to Classify Streamflow Patterns in Coastal Gulf of ...
The flow regime of the River Murray has changed markedly over the last century, and especially the last 50 years, through increased diversions, construction of dams, weirs and levees and changes in operational procedures. A model developed by the Murray–Darling Basin Commission is used to compare...
