Description :
The AA. present a new field method which allows concurrent measurement of fine sediment content and embryo survival in an incubating environment reproducing, as closely as possible, the morphology and grain size composition of a natural salmonid redd, as well as the flow and sediment transport conditions experienced by the embryos of natural redds during the incubation period.
