Summary

The Underwater Acoustic Deterrent System is an experimental deterrent that utilizes underwater sounds to deter invasive carps. An experimental deployment and evaluation of a UADS is currently being conducted at Lock 19 on the Mississippi River, near Keokuk, Iowa. This dataset includes information derived from two telemetry arrays (i.e., 307 kHz HTI and 69 kHz VEMCO) deployed at and around Lock 19 to evaluate fish movement and response to the UADS in 2021 and 2022. Silver Carp, Bighead Carp, Grass Carp, and a variety of native fish species were tagged and monitored with the telemetry arrays. Any use of trade, firm, or product names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government.

Purpose

The data were collected to test an experimental deterrent designed to restrict movements of invasive carp. The data were collected by deploying many acoustic telemetry receivers, catching and tagging native and invasive fish with acoustic telemetry tags, and tracking their movements. These data use fine scale positioning as well as broader movement patterns. The fine scale positioning is used to get accurate positions and movements of the fishes across the deterrent, while the more coarse positions are used to describe when the fishes make full upstream movements through the lock chamber. This information can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of the deterrent at this site and to assist managers in designing future deterrent technologies to restrict invasive carp movement while minimizing impacts on native fish migrations.
