Abstract: The low-flow section of a compound Crump weir was modelled at1/5 scale to investigate the effect of low-cost modifications to the downstream face to improve fish passage. These consisted of baffles with a slot at each wall, and the arrangement was varied in terms of baffle spacing and slot width. Measurements at the 95 percentile low-flow indicated that the modifications, though not yet a satisfactory solution, offer potential that merits further work.
