The biological effects of bank stabilization structures on fish and benthic macroinvertebrates in Fort Loudoun Lake: Final report
Technical Report

OSTI ID:7166368
- ed.
Fish and benthic macroinvertebrate populations in the littoral zone of Fort Loudoun Lake were sampled in 1982 to determine the impact of shoreline modification structures on the abundance and diversity of these organisms. Fish populations were collected along natural (undisturbed) shoreline areas, retaining walls, and riprap areas by electrofishing and shoreline rotenoning, while benthos were collected at similar areas using artificial substrate samplers and a kick net. Riprap areas typically yielded the most fish in electrofishing samples, while natural areas usually had the most fish in the rotenone samples. Retaining wall areas usually yielded the fewest fish in both sampling schemes.
