Fishways might be an effective mitigation measure if they integrate designed operational characteristics that account for the biomechanical requirements of this species. Understanding the flow conditions inside the fishway, and how barbel responds to the hydrodynamics of the flow is imperative to improve free migratory routes with minimum energetic cost associated. Herein, we analyze and synthesize the main findings of research on pool-type fishways for upstream passage of the Iberian barbel and derive recommendations of design criteria for pool-type fishways for this species and others of similar biomechanics capacities. Ultimately, we identify research needs to improve upstream passage of this species.}, organization = {A.T.S. was supported by the Norwegian Research Centre for Hydropower Technology—HydroCen (Project No. 257588); M.B. was funded from EU’s Horizon 2020 Programme under Marie Sklodowska-Curie Grant Agreement 754446 and UGR Research and Knowledge Transfer Fund—Athenea3i; and J.M.S. was supported by national funds via FCT under the CEEC Institucional 2018 (Ref. 2/ISA/FCT/2018).
