Shtaf, L. G., D. S. Pavlov, M. A. Skorobogatov and A. Barekyan (1983). The influence of flow turbulence on fish behavior. Journal of Ichthyology. 23:129- 140.

The influence of degrees of flow turbulence on the behavior of the roach, Rutilus rutilus , and the minnow, Phoxinus phoxinus are presented. Data are given on the manner of selection by fish of zones with a heightened degree of turbulence, on places of concentration, swimming capacity, compactness of schools of fish in currents with varying turbulence characteristics, and degree of orientation of fish at speeds close to threshold, depending on the flow movement regime.
