Abstract

In einer Restwasserstrecke der Saane wurde 2016 zur Sanierung der kolmatierten Gewässersohle und zur Aufwertung der Lebensräume ein künstliches Hochwasser ausgelöst und mit einer Sedimentzugabe gekoppelt. Die mittelfristigen Wirkungen der Sedimentzugabe wurden anhand des Indikator-Sets Habitatvielfalt der neuen Schweizer Richtlinie zur Wirkungskontrolle von Fliessgewässerrevitalisierungen (WiKo) untersucht. Zur zielorientierten Wirkungskontrolle wurde das Set um einen Indikator Reproduktionseignung anhand Substratdegradierung (IRS) ergänzt.

Rainbow trout

The rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) is a species of trout native to cold-water tributaries of the Pacific Ocean in Asia and North America. The steelhead (sometimes called steelhead trout) is an anadromous (sea-run) form of the coastal rainbow trout (O. m. irideus) or Columbia River redband trout (O. m. gairdneri) that usually returns to freshwater to spawn after living two to three years in the ocean. Freshwater forms that have been introduced into the Great Lakes and migrate into tributaries to spawn are also called steelhead.

Brook trout

The brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) is a species of freshwater fish in the char genus Salvelinus of the salmon family Salmonidae. It is native to Eastern North America in the United States and Canada, but has been introduced elsewhere in North America, as well as to Iceland, Europe, and Asia. In parts of its range, it is also known as the eastern brook trout, speckled trout, brook charr, squaretail, brookie or mud trout, among others. A potamodromous population in Lake Superior, is known as coaster trout or, simply, as coasters.

Cutthroat trout

The cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii) is a fish species of the family Salmonidae native to cold-water tributaries of the Pacific Ocean, Rocky Mountains, and Great Basin in North America. As a member of the genus Oncorhynchus, it is one of the Pacific trout, a group that includes the widely distributed rainbow trout. Cutthroat trout are popular gamefish, especially among anglers who enjoy fly fishing. The common name "cutthroat" refers to the distinctive red coloration on the underside of the lower jaw.
