Considering the large-scale environmental disturbance caused by this project--upstream of the dam 310 km2 of equatorial forest was drowned, representing 18 million trees--it was decided to embark on several research programmes.
During the reservoir-filling phase, the surface area of flooded parts was reduced owing to a cut in flood head-water levels.
In addition, as creek and tributary flood levels are no longer compensated by an increase in river level, the Sinnamary tributaries have acted like flushing mechanisms causing increased current speeds, hardly suitable for survival and growth of juveniles.

The present work was carried out on the hydroelectric reservoir Petit-Saut on the Sinnamary river in French Guiana.
Measurements were performed during the wet and dry seasons along a longitudinal gradient, from upstream of the reservoir in two inflow rivers, to the Sinnamary estuary downstream of the dam.
The MMHg concentration profiles in the water column suggest that methylation occurs mainly in anoxie waters and sediments in relation with the activity of sulfate reducing bacteria.

This study is based on 27 series of daily water level (DWL) records in the downstream reaches of the Sinnamary River during the November to June rainy season: 22 series prior to dam closure, two series during filling and three series during dam operation.
A greater number of days with high DWL were recorded during rainy seasons corresponding with La Nina events than during years with no particular ENSO event but El Nino events reduced the occurrence of high DWL in June only.
Dam operation significantly increased monthly DWL in the downstream reaches of the Sinnamary River from November to January whatever the ENSO event considered.
