RIver flow regulation, fish BEhaviour and Status

Project description

Ecohydraulics against river degradation

The loss of biodiversity and degradation of aquatic habitats, largely caused by human actions, has led to a new resolution calling for ecosystem restoration. Moreover, the EU has raised the binding renewable energy target for 2030 to at least 32 % (up from 20 %). Hydropower is in the mix. In this context, the EU-funded RIBES project will train 15 Early-Stage Researchers (ESR) in the interdisciplinary field of Ecohydraulics to develop innovative solutions for freshwater fish protection and river continuity restoration in human-induced affected rivers. The project brings together 8 European universities, consultancy companies, public agencies, and the hydropower industry, as well as experts in fish biology, river ecology, environmental fluid mechanics, and hydraulic engineering.
