A barrier to upstream migration in the fish passage of Itaipu Dam (Canal da Piracema), Paraná River basin

A barrier to upstream migration in the fish passage of Itaipu Dam (Canal da Piracema), Paraná River basin

The majority of the fish passages built in the Neotropical region are characterised by low efficiency and high selectivity; in many cases, the benefits to fish populations are uncertain. Studies conducted in the Canal da Piracema at Itaipu dam on the Parana River indicate that the system component d...
