A man made river barrier of metal or plastic screens or pickets allow water to pass but not larger fish like Atlantic salmon. Low stocks of these adronomous fish that grow in ocean over winter and spawn in fresh water at heads of rivers at end of each following fall demanded protective measures by the government. The man-made barriers hold the fish in a large natural pool below them. Resident wardens count, protect and check the health of these fish that during the summer of low water and high water temperature on their own these Atlantic salmon upriver, spread out over a much larger and difficult area to patrol, are highly visible and most vulnerable to poachers and preditors. Later when fall rains color and raise the level of the river the fishing season may be closed, the river closed for boating these man-made barriers are removed and the protected fish swim up river to spawn. The Tobique and Dungarvan Rivers of New Brunswick, Canada have similar river barriers.
The relationship between a dam and a reservoir is that they both hold water.
Two adaptations of desert plants are: 1. The roots' ability to wick up water very fast and efficiently on those rare occasions that water is available. 2. The thick, waxy skin, or outer layer of the plant, which reduces transpiration of water into the surrounding air.

A river may be dammed to provide a reservoir for drinking water, or for producing electricity. A dam could also be built to regulate water flow, hold back water during drought, or slowly release water during heavy rain.

Floodgates are barriers or gates that can be opened or closed to control the flow of water, typically to prevent flooding. They are usually operated manually or remotely and can be adjusted to regulate the amount of water that passes through them. When closed, floodgates create a barrier that helps to hold back water and divert it to designated areas.
to hold the water better but at the top it's thinner to get water in
They are designed to hold back alot of water.
a barrier constructed to hold back water and raise its level, the resulting reservoir being used in the generation of electricity or as a water supply.
