Quantifying fragmentation of freshwater systems using a measure of discharge modification (and other applications) David Theobald, John Norman, David Merritt (USFS) Natural Resource Ecology Lab, Dept of Recreation & Tourism, Colorado State University Fort Collins, CO USA 26 July 2005

Freshwater fragmentation Southern Rockies Ecosystem Project

Fragmentation and flow modification Deynesius and Nilsson (1994) – 77% of upper 1/3 of northern hemisphere rivers are strongly or moderately affected - F = regulated/total channel length - R = % of VMAD (cumulative reservoir live, gross capacity) Regulated Channel Length (RCL) Total Channel Length (TCL)

Network-based flow modification Degree of modification (F) is ratio of unmodified discharge as a proportion of total annual discharge F = ( Q-S ) / Q - Q is cumulative annual discharge - S is cumulative dam “normal” storage

Predicted discharge Average annual precipitation & temperature, basin area Average annual precipitation & temperature, basin area Vogel et al Vogel et al Vogel
