Development of a Numerical Fish Surrogate for Improved Selection of Fish Passage Design and Operation Alternatives for Lower Granite Dam: Phase I
New tools have become accepted within the Columbia River Basin that provide detailed information on the hydraulic environment (e.g., Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers - ADCP and Computational Fluid Dynamics - CFD) and biological responses (e.g., multi-beam hydroacoustics and acoustic tracking). Unfortunately, the new information provided by these tools cannot presently be integrated into a unified framework to support regional decision-making. The overall goal of this research is to develop and apply an approach for integrating biological and hydraulic information to support selection of optimum designs and project operations for Surface Bypass at Lower Granite Dam. The tools and relationships developed for lower Granite Dam may have application to other sites within the basin. The specific goal for FY99 was to develop the approach and apply it in a preliminary, proof-of-concept context in anticipation that the ideas and concepts will be more fully developed in FY00.
