- Description:
- The principle purpose of this study is to establish design criteria for culverts that will ensure the maintenance of fish populations in streams traversed by the proposed Alaska Pipeline and its supporting highway. The original objectives of the study were : a} to determine the sustained swimming speed of mature Arctic grayling (Thymollus arcticus) during their spawning run in an inclined culvert in which flows and velocities were regulated, b) to determine the cruising speed of various size-classes of grayling in a circular channel at prevailing stream temperatures, and, c) to investigate the influence of water temperature on the swimming performance of Arctic grayling in controlled bioassay laboratories at the University of Idaho.
