Influence of streamflow reductions on salmonid embryo development and fry quality. Research technical completion report, project A-058-IDA Item Info
![From 1977-1979 field and laboratory tests were conducted to determine the impacts of streamflow reduction over redds on salmonid embryo incubation and fry quality. Laboratory tests were conducted in artificial stream channels located at the Hayden Creek research station and in incubation chambers installed in the University of Idaho fisheries wet lab. Field tests utilized sections of Big Springs Creek and Bear Valley Creek. Tests were designed to evaluate the effects of reducing depths and velocities over redds on spring chinook salmon (Onchorhycus tshawytscha) and steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri) embryo incubation success and resulting alevins. Sediment size and level was incorporated into the test design.
