| Summary: | Ethohydraulics is the transdiscipline linking behavioural science (ethology) and flow behaviour (hydraulics). Ethohydraulic studies provide repeatable and scalable insights into the reactive behaviour of aquatic animals. The findings can be used to derive limits and guidelines as well as design specifications for the planning of hydraulic engineering facilities. In this essential book, the authors provide an overview of the fundamentals and methodological approaches of ethohydraulic investigations. This Springer essential is a translation of the original German 1st edition essentials,Ethohydraulik by Boris Lehmann, published by Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature in 2021. Beate Adam works as a freelance aquatic and fish ecologist in research and practice. Dr. rer. nat. Ulrich Schwevers is head of the Institute for Applied Ecology GmbH. Associate Prof. Dr.-Eng. Jeffrey A. Tuhtan teaches environmental sensing and intelligence at the University of Tallinn in Estonia with a focus on bioinspired methods. The translation was done with the help of artificial intelligence (machine translation by the service DeepL.com).Content language were subsequently revised by authors.Springer Nature works continuously to further the development of tools for the production of books and on the related technologies to support the authors. The contents · The ethohydraulic method · Practical examples and pitfalls · Current and future developments The target groups • Practitioners from water management and hydraulic engineering who want to get a quick overview of the subject area • Lecturers and students of civil and environmental engineering as well as natural sciences The authors Prof. Dr.-Eng. habil. Boris Lehmann teaches hydraulic engineering and hydraulics at the Technical University of Darmstadt. Katharina Bensing, M.Sc., is a research assistant and doctoral student at the Chair for Hydraulic Engineering at the Technical University of Darmstadt. Dr. rer. nat. |
