Methodology for assessing population and ecosystem level effects related to intake of cooling waters. Volume 1. Handbook of methods: population level techniques. Final report
Various techniques related to assessing power-plant-induced mortality at the population level are presented. A broad range of techniques is presented through a review of past experience, examples using real or simulated data from power plant studies and new techniques developed for this methodology. The detailed information needed by an investigator to select those techniques most appropriate for the assessment problem at hand is provided. Guidance is provided for the interpretation of the results of various analyses where appropriate. The major subjects reviewed include techniques for estimating entrainment and impingement mortality, techniques for estimating population size, hydrologically based models for assessment, the use of length data for assessment, the Leslie Matrix Model, population response analysis, including a computer program for reproductive value, stock-recruitment relationships and life cycle models.
