Stream Crossings
Culverts, bridges, and other stream crossings can influence fish movement and the connectivity of freshwater habitats. Our research examines stream crossings in relation to fish habitat and conditions in surrounding waterways. This work can help inform infrastructure planning and restoration approaches that better support aquatic ecosystems.
