Fish mortality and its population-level impacts at the Annapolis Tidal Hydroelectric Generating Station, Annapolis Royal, Nova Scotia : a review of existing scientific literature / by A. Jamie F. Gibson,...: Fs97-6/3305E-PDF

"The purpose of this document is to provide a summary and evaluation of the scientific literature pertaining to the mortality of fish at the Annapolis Tidal Generating Station (Annapolis TiGS) and the population-level impacts associated with this mortality. Information is available about fish passage, turbine mortality rates, population-level changes and diversion systems for several species at the Annapolis TiGS, although the information is dated and contains a high level of uncertainty. The most recent field study at the TiGS identified during this review occurred in 1999. While there is a diverse fish community present at the Annapolis TiGS, most studies have focused on Alosa spp. and the majority of information for other species is limited to small fish amenable to capture in ichthyoplankton nets"--Abstract.
