About the Technical Paper
Inland aquatic habitats have been greatly altered by many processes, including: water storage, hydro-electric and irrigation schemes; construction of dams and weirs and various river management works; desnagging and channelisation; changes to flow, water level and thermal regimes; removal of instream cover; increased siltation; toxic pollution and destruction of nursery and spawning or breeding areas.
