Abstract
A method and device are provided for improving the reoxygenation of water in line with dams. At the crown of the dam a plurality of studs are disposed which form a comb and cause thorough division of the overflowing sheet of water. This sheet of water undergoes a veritable disintegration which increases the air-water interface and causes an increase in the oxygenation of the overflowing flow.
