Onderzoek naar de visveiligheid van de turbine aan het sluis-stuw complex van de Leie in Harelbeke

Our study found the passage of the turbines to be risky for fish, resulting in damage or even death, and no difference between half and full speed. Because downstream migrating fish mainly use the main stream of the river, we recommend activating the turbine only when the main stream passes over the weirs.
