TL;DR: Reducing the impacts and restoring the natural ecosystem function of these water bodies requires a three-tiered approach based on: restoration of channel hydromorphological dynamics; restoration and management of the riparian zone; andmanagement of activities in the wider catchment that have both point-source and diffuse impacts.

Street lighting disrupts the diel migratory pattern of wild Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., smolts leaving their natal stream
TL;DR: The migratory timing and behaviour of wild Atlantic salmon smolts leaving their natal stream was determined using a passive integrated transponder (PIT) antennae system at a study site on a tributary of the River Itchen, England.

Street lighting delays and disrupts the dispersal of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) fry
TL;DR: In the wild, the period between fry emergence and the establishment of feeding territories is considered to be of critical importance in the dynamics of salmonid populations and any disruption may reduce fitness.

The effects of low summer flow on wild salmon (Salmo salar), trout (Salmo trutta) and grayling (Thymallus thymallus) in a small stream
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of an experimentally imposed low summer flow on habitat use, displacement and survival of wild populations of juvenile salmon, trout and grayling were investigated in a chalk stream.
