Abstract

The Instream Flow Incremental Methodology, a technique for the prediction of minimum flows to protect biota, was applied to the Sabie River in Kruger National Park, South Africa. The objective was to maintain the highest possible biotic diversity in the river ecosystem. A set of discharges to protect biota was produced for river managers to consider. (D.W.T.)
