This study evaluates the San Juan River, which runs through Colorado, New Mexico, and Utah (U.S.). The San Juan River was dammed in the early 1960s, and its hydrology was altered in 1993 to mimic natural conditions. This study monitored the populations of both native and nonnative fishes in secondary channels of the San Juan to evaluate the effects of natural flow regime mimicry on riverine wildlife.
