Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book presents a remarkable study of a fishway on the Merrimack River in Lawrence, Massachusetts, which has achieved success in facilitating the passage of shad, a species that has faced significant challenges due to the construction of dams. The author, a skilled fishery biologist, delves into the history and design of the fishway, emphasizing its unique features and the specific hydraulic conditions that have enabled shad to ascend it successfully. Through a combination of observations, model studies, and analysis, the book explores the factors contributing to the fishway's effectiveness, including the low velocities, lack of turbulence, and absence of 'jumps' at the entrance. The insights gained from this study contribute valuable knowledge to the ongoing efforts to design and improve fishways, offering hope for the restoration of shad populations and the preservation of their historic spawning grounds. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
