Tyus, H. M. (1990). Effects of altered stream flows on fishery resources. Fisheries. 15:18-20.

Alteration of the quantity and timing of river or stream flow can significantly affect fisheries resources. The American Fisheries Society (AFS) is alarmed at the loss of natural streams in North America, and greatly concerned with management of fisheries in streams that have been altered. The AFS believes that public trust rights need more recognition and stronger consideration in the management of stream resources. This policy statement revises the 1981 version by J.C. Peters entitled "Effects of River and Streamflow Alteration on Fishery Resources".
