The Reclamation Department is offering this grant to fund research focused on developing and applying an Ecological Health Assessment (EHA) for managed reservoirs. This grant is for the purpose of identifying a crucial balance between effective water management practices, meeting essential habitat requirements for fish populations, and maintaining overall environmental health within these aquatic systems. Furthermore, the research aligns with the Science and Technology Program’s priority on climate impacts. It aims to detect and understand potential fluctuations in hydrologic and thermal regimes, which may be indicators of climate change effects. Ultimately, this initiative will enhance our understanding of reservoir ecosystems and support sustainable management strategies.
