About HydroPASSAGE
HydroPASSAGE has worked to develop toolsets for the hydropower industry to mitigate environmental impacts on fish passage.
FAQs
These are frequently asked questions related to the HydroPASSAGE project and its associated toolsets.
Glossary
This is a glossary of terms commonly used in materials related to hydropower and fish passage.
Tools & Technologies
The HydroPASSAGE toolsets include Biological Performance Assessment (BioPA), Hydropower Biological Evaluation Toolset (HBET), and Sensor Fish.
HBET
The Hydropower Biological Evaluation Toolset (HBET) relates data collected by field-based sensors to biological response models for downstream fish passage at hydropower facilities.
Sensor Fish
Sensor Fish is a small autonomous device that measures the physical stressorsfish experience when passing through or around dams.
Biological Response
The HydroPASSAGE project studied biological response relationships in laboratory experiments to connect in-turbine physical stressors to impacts on fish.
