Journal Article
Foulds, W., & Lucas, M. (2013). Extreme inefficiency of two conventional, technical fishways used by European river lamprey (Lampetra fluviatilis). Ecological Engineering, 58, 423-433. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ecoleng.2013.06.038

In recent years, fishways have increasingly been designed and installed with the intention to not only provide economically important fishes, such as salmonids, with free passage at barriers, but also for other elements of the migratory fish communit...

Reduced flow impacts salmonid smolt emigration in a river with low-head weirs (2013)
Journal Article
Gauld, N., Campbell, R., & Lucas, M. (2013). Reduced flow impacts salmonid smolt emigration in a river with low-head weirs. Science of the Total Environment, 458-460, 435-443. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.scitotenv.2013.04.063

The impacts of large dams on the hydrology and ecology of river systems are well understood, yet the impacts of low-head structures are poorly known. While impacts of small weirs on upstream-migrating fish have long been mitigated by fish ladders, it... Read More about Reduced flow impacts salmonid smolt emigration in a river with low-head weirs.

Tracking animals in freshwater with electronic tags: past, present and future (2013)
Journal Article
Cooke, S., Midwood, J., Thiem, J., Klimley, P., Lucas, M., Thorstad, E., …Ebner, B. (2013). Tracking animals in freshwater with electronic tags: past, present and future. Animal Biotelemetry, 1, Article 5. https://doi.org/10.1186/2050-3385-1-5

Considerable technical developments over the past half century have enabled widespread application of electronic tags to the study of animals in the wild, including in freshwater environments. We review the constraints associated with freshwater tele... Read More about Tracking animals in freshwater with electronic tags: past, present and future.
