Small Hydropower Plants' Proliferation Would Negatively Affect Local Herpetofauna

Small Hydropower Plants' Proliferation Would Negatively Affect Local Herpetofauna

Hydropower plants (HPPs) have a strong environmental impact on freshwater wetlands. Small diversion HPPs (SDHPPs) with 0.1–10 MW of installed power, redirect water from small mountainous rivers into several-kilometer-long tubes, disrupting complex dynamics of local aquatic food webs and their intera...
