来自美国西部的研究人员针对水电坝日调节流量( hydropeaking )对干旱区河岸植被的影响展开研究。通过建模分析32,689个河段和1,496个物种数据，发现湿地依赖型物种对hydropeaking呈负响应，而近河道物种则表现出适应性正响应。该研究首次在干旱区验证了hydropeaking对 ...

Sub-daily and weekly flow cycles termed ‘hydropeaking’ are common features in regulated rivers worldwide. Weekly flow periodicity arises from fluctuating electricity demand and production tied to ...

CORVALLIS, Ore. - A group of researchers concluded today in a study in the journal BioScience that "hydropeaking" of water flows on many rivers in the West has a devastating impact on aquatic insect ...

本研究针对韩国Paldang湖(PL)水库悬浮物滞留机制展开创新性探索。研究人员通过构建水动力-温度耦合模型与拉格朗日粒子追踪框架，系统分析了水力调峰(hydropeaking)、非调峰和洪水事件三种流态下细颗粒与粗颗粒的输移特征。研究发现水力调峰显著延长细颗粒 ...

Quantifying short-term changes in river flow is important in understanding the environmental impacts of hydropower generation. Energy markets can change rapidly and energy demand fluctuates at ...

A group of researchers concluded that 'hydropeaking' of water flows on many rivers in the West has a devastating impact on aquatic insect abundance. A group of researchers concluded today in a study ...

LOGAN, UTAH, USA - Dams around the world provide critical water supplies and hydropower to growing communities and hundreds of new dams are proposed for developing economies. Though viewed as sources ...

The decline of aquatic insects downstream from some hydroelectric dams has been linked to a widespread practice known as hydropeaking, whereby river flows are increased during the day when electricity ...

Dams around the world provide critical water supplies and hydropower to growing communities and hundreds of new dams are proposed for developing economies. Though viewed as sources of potential green ...

A practice commonly done in dams is threatening several insects and disturbing the ecological balance within rivers, says a new U.S. study. Dams play a huge role in creating hydropower supply around ...

Though hydropower is renewable energy, construction and operation of dams harms ecosystem functions and services. Scientists recommend strategic planning and mitigation practices to temper dams' ...

The BioScience Talks podcast features discussions of topical issues related to the biological sciences. Hydropower dams generate more energy than all other renewable sources combined. However, they ...
