Abstract

In this experiment, we analyzed live fish (silver carp) trajectories recorded in an experimental vertical-slot fishway. Combined with a numerical simulation, we demonstrated that randomness shown in fish trajectories might not merely be attributed to the fish’s random choices in its swimming, but could also be a consequence of adaption to the bulk unsteady turbulent flow structures. Simple superposition of a fish trajectory on the time-averaged flow field obtained either by interpolating on discrete point measurements or numerical simulation data is not an ideal method for description of fish movement. How to model the fish paths in transient flow and the necessity of simultaneous recording of the flow field and the fish locomotion are challenging topics. We also discussed the possible integration of currently existing methods to promote the development of fish trajectory modeling.
