Richard Ruby, a biologists with the Army Corps of Engineers, Buffalo District, talks about measuring the Niagara River’s turbulence and velocity along the southern portion of the breakwall at Broderick Park in Buffalo May 20. During past studies, the river’s velocity at the breakwall exceeds the velocity for the Emerald Shiner, an important prey fish, to swim back to Lake Erie. Part of the project includes a future demonstration project of installing fish baffles along the breakwall in hopes of the slowing down the river’s velocity so the shiner will be able to swim back to Lake Erie after the spawning season.
