Water quality - Guidance for assessing the efficiency and related metrics of fish passage solutions using telemetry

This document specifies standardized methods for assessing the efficiency and related metrics of fish passage solutions using telemetry techniques that allow individual fish approaching an impediment to be monitored.
It covers studies using fish that have been electronically tagged with acoustic, passive integrated transponder or radio tags in order to provide a variety of defined passage efficiency metrics and includes both upstream and downstream passage of fish.
It provides recommendations and requirements for equipment, study design, data analysis and reporting. Selected literature with references in support of this document is given in the Bibliography.

Wasserbeschaffenheit - Anleitung zur Beurteilung der Wirksamkeit und zugehöriger Kennwerte von Fischaufstiegshilfen mittels Fernmessung

Dieses Dokument legt standardisierte Methoden für die Bewertung der Effizienz und damit zusammenhängende Metriken von Fischpassage-Lösungen unter Verwendung von Telemetriemethoden fest, mit denen einzelne Fische, die sich einem Hindernis nähern, überwacht werden können.
Es deckt Studien ab, bei denen Fische mit akustischen, passiven integrierten Transpondern oder Funketiketten elektronisch markiert wurden, um eine Vielzahl von definierten Metriken zur Passageeffizienz zu erhalten, und umfasst sowohl die stromaufwärts als auch die stromabwärts gerichtete Passage von Fischen.
Es enthält Empfehlungen und Anforderungen für Ausrüstung, Studiendesign, Datenanalyse und Berichterstattung. Ausgewählte Literatur mit Verweisen zur Unterstützung dieses Dokuments enthalten die Literaturhinweise.

Introduction
Fish passage solutions (FPS) are measures to help fish pass a cross-river obstacle or impediment in
upstream and/or downstream directions. The ideal solution, from a global-ecological perspective,
would be to re-establish natural river connectivity by decommissioning or removing the obstacle which
would at the same time eliminate or reduce any impounded section and allow unimpeded sediment
transport. In the last two decades or so, the number of constructed upstream FPS has increased
significantly at least in some parts of the world, and the range of proposed FPS designs has also
increased. However, despite careful control of FPS design both pre-and post-construction, the
performance of FPS needs comprehensive field monitoring for the following reasons: FPS designs
globally rely on laboratory experiments that need validating in situ; the efficiency of initially well-
designed FPS may be modified by changes to the environment (e.g. discharge, river morphol
