Résumé : |
Under the Water Framework Directive, the restoration of the ecological continuity of rivers is required, with the objective of improving the free movement of migratory fish. The European LIFE Agueda project is a part of this dynamic process, with the aim of eliminating hydro-morphological pressures on certain sections of the Vouga basin in Portugal. The temporary weir of Rio do Principe located near the estuary is one of the obstacles identified. The weir is built during low water levels to limit brackish water from damaging facilities during high tide periods. The weir is equipped with a system of gates that are opened and closed according to the tide. Mitigation means to reduce effects of the weir are implemented to ensure the migration of diadromous fish and an optimal management o[...]
Under the Water Framework Directive, the restoration of the ecological continuity of rivers is required, with the objective of improving the free movement of migratory fish. The European LIFE Agueda project is a part of this dynamic process, with the aim of eliminating hydro-morphological pressures on certain sections of the Vouga basin in Portugal. The temporary weir of Rio do Principe located near the estuary is one of the obstacles identified. The weir is built during low water levels to limit brackish water from damaging facilities during high tide periods. The weir is equipped with a system of gates that are opened and closed according to the tide. Mitigation means to reduce effects of the weir are implemented to ensure the migration of diadromous fish and an optimal management of the weir. In order to evaluate the relevance of these mitigation means, a monitoring is conducted with a multi-beam acoustic camera, ARIS. Based on these results, mitigation measures can be improved over the following year when the weir is rebuilt. ARIS is used as an informative tool on fish behaviour and abundance. Based on the 2018 results, the solution adopted for 2019 is a slot-pass. Monitoring is done on a weekly basis. The downstream and upstream of the weir are monitored for a period of about 12 hours in order to have several tidal phases. The solution implemented in 2019 is well located, attractive and passable by fish. The movement of fish is strongly correlated with the movement of the tide. Two types of migration are identified. Those with higher swimming capacities and those using the tide as an energy-efficient transport mechanism. The latter have a shorter time window to cross the weir. Based on these results, improvements can be implement for next year. ARIS is a powerful tool and provides valuable quantitative data for managers' decision-making to have a better weir’s management.
