migration of fish.
Many fish species undertake more or less extended migrations as part of
their basic behaviour. Amongst the best known examples in Europe are
salmon (Salmo salar) and sturgeon (Acipenser sturio), which often swim several
thousands of kilometres when returning from the sea to their spawning
grounds in rivers. In addition to these long-distance migratory species other
fish and invertebrates undertake more or less short-term or small-scale
migrations from one part of the river to another at certain phases of their
life cycles.
Fish passes are of increasing importance for the restoration of free pas-
sage for fish and other aquatic species in rivers as such devices are often
the only way to make it possible for aquatic fauna to pass obstacles that
block their up-river journey. The fish passes thus become key elements
for the ecological improvement of running waters. Their efficient function-
ing is a prerequisite for the restoration of free passage in rivers. However,
studies of existing devices have shown that many of them do not func-
tion correctly. Therefore, various stakeholders, e.g. engineers, biologists
and administrators, have declared great interest in generally valid
design criteria and instructions that correspond to the present state-of-the-
art of experience and knowledge.
