A Mechanistic Approach to Modeling Habitat Needs of Drift-Feeding Salmonids
A mechanistic model is developed to determine the habitat needs of drift-feeding stream salmonids from the direct cause-and- effect relationships of environmental and physiological variables on net energy intake (NEI). The model determines NEI by subtracting energy costs (basal metabolism , swimming...
