Stream Temperature and Dissolved Oxygen Responses to Small Dams and Dam Removal in Massachusetts Stream Temperature and Dissolved Oxygen Responses to Small Dams and Dam Removal in Massachusetts

Small, surface-release dams are ubiquitous across the U.S. and have the potential to alter stream flow, impede sediment and nutrient transport, and fragment biotic assemblages. To mitigate these and other ecological impacts and reduce public safety hazards, dam removal has become an increasingly prevalent method of stream restoration. However, few streams have been consistently monitored...
