Water quality modeling to determine minimum instream flow for fish survival in tidal waters

Article Abstract:

The tidal reach of the Danshuei River system in Taiwan is studied by applying a time-dependent, two-dimensional hydrodynamic and water quality model to ascertain the minimum inflow of water to enable survival of fish in the tidal waters. It is found that there is ample consistency between the proposed model predictions and site observations, which makes it an effective model.

Contingent values for New Mexico instream flows: with tests of scope, group-size reminder and temporal reliability

Article Abstract:

A study applying the survey-based contingent valuation method to assess non-market values for protecting instream flows in New Mexico rivers indicates substantial non-market values. There is no evidence to support the simple contribution model for interpreting valuation responses as mainly symbolic.
