Damming and reservoirs affect migration of fishes which could change their food behavior, they can lose their ability to swim
in the faster currents, and accumulation of sediments can hamper their niche which leads to a reduction of their population.
As Damming involves the accumulation of sediments, the downstream water deprived of sediments leads to increased
eroding of banks in the downstream.
