Assessment of Stoplog Gates’ Operational Effectiveness for Improving Discharged-Water Temperatures during the Thermal Stratification Period in a Reservoir

The discharge of low-temperature water from the middle and lower layers of thermally stratified dam reservoirs leads to thermal pollution and adversely affects fish production and reproduction in downstream rivers. Selective water withdrawal using stoplog gates is an effective approach to address th...
