Instream Flow Incremental Methodology (IFIM) and Physical Habitat Simulation (PHABSIM). IFIM is a process for evaluating instream flows in the context of the entire ecology of the watershed, including hydrology, geography, and biology. PHABSIM is a modeling approach and tool for use within (or separate from) IFIM. 4, record 1, English, - instream%20flow%20incremental%20methodology

La méthode des microhabitats a été définie dans ses grands principes par Waters (1976), puis améliorée et informatisée par Bovec (1982), aux États-Unis, sous la dénomination de «Instream Flow Incremental Methodology» ou IFIM. La méthode IFIM permet de prédire la quantité d’habitat disponible d’une portion de cours d’eau en fonction de différents paramètres retraçant les conditions hydrodynamiques. Le module principal consiste en une «simulation physique de l’habitat» selon la dénomination anglo-saxonne : Physical HABitat SIMulation ou PHABSIM [...]. Depuis 1985, une méthode semblable a été développée par le Laboratoire d’Hydroécologie Quantitative du CEMAGREF et adaptée aux cours d’eau français [...] 1, record 1, French, - m%C3%A9thode%20des%20microhabitats

The hydraulic component is PHABSIM (physical habitat simulation), a set of computer programs that simulate hydraulic conditions and (with recent modifications) water quality at different flows, based upon field data and river hydraulic principles. In tandem, PHABSIM and HSI models are used to estimate the habitat availability for fish at different flows. 4, record 2, English, - physical%20habitat%20simulation%20program
