Environmental flow refers to the ecological need for water, including lentic and lotic ecosystems. The Brisbane Declaration on Environmental Flows in 2018 defines minimum low flow and minimum flushing flow for meeting these needs. A framework integrating the Sustainable Management of Hydrological Alteration (SUMHA) framework and the perception-based Bayesian belief network (BBN) model was applied to a storage-based dam project on a rain-fed river stretch in India. The framework visualizes relationships between influencing variables and river ecosystem services, aiding in informed water management decisions. Through this research, it is demonstrated that the proposed framework has potential in estimating and implementing the environmental flow requirements (EFRs) and for building scenarios pertaining to river ecosystem management in the context of existing storage-based hydropower projects, which is pertinent in the case of ecological data-scarce conditions prevailing in developing countries including India.
