Use of biological reference points for the conservation of atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)in the River Lune, North West England. [PDF]

, 2005
This paper deals with the development and use of biological reference points for salmon conservation on the River Lune, England. The Lune supports recreational and net fisheries with annual catches in the region of 1,000 and 1356 salmon respectively ...

Acoustic telemetry reveals high site fidelity of yellow‐phase American eels Anguilla rostrata in a large river

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Movement patterns and habitat use of yellow‐phase American eels Anguilla rostrata in the Wolastoq/Saint John River were examined using acoustic telemetry. Tracking 72 tagged yellow‐phase eels from late summer 2021 to autumn 2023 revealed overall restricted longitudinal movements (mean linear range ± standard deviation [SD] 6.4 ± 10.9 km) and ...

Return migration to fresh water and overwintering locations used by sympatric anadromous populations of Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) and Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma malma)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Anadromous Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) and northern form Dolly Varden (Salvelinus malma malma) are highly valued by Indigenous communities in northern Canada. Rapid, ongoing environmental changes are affecting populations of both of these iteroparous species, and understanding variability in life‐history tactics is essential for ...

The lake sink in Atlantic salmon smolt downstream migration

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The objective was to estimate the movements and survival of Atlantic salmon smolts migrating downstream through a river–lake system consisting of two large, interconnected lakes (areas 58.2 and 13.2 km2, minimum crossing distance 29 and 16 km).

Aerobic scope is sustained through a heatwave in juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aquatic ectotherms are vulnerable to heatwave‐induced physiological stress, which arises from increased energy demands and reduced dissolved oxygen content in warmer waters. Understanding thermal physiology is critical for predicting how commercially and ecologically important populations could be affected by the increasing risk of rising ...

Rapid increase in abundance and distribution of invasive pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) within a diverse, large Barents Sea catchment

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Pink salmon originate from the North Pacific area but were introduced into northwest Russia from the late 1950s onwards. Since 2017, the alien species has increased dramatically in abundance and rapidly invaded adjacent areas of the North Atlantic region.

Non‐native pink salmon Oncorhynchus gorbuscha carcasses benefit native benthic macroinvertebrates

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The invasion of the North Atlantic by pink salmon Oncorhynchus gorbuscha has raised concerns regarding their impact on coastal rivers. Although the influence of marine‐derived nutrients from returning adult O. gorbuscha on rivers in their native range has received much attention, the ecological consequences of invasive O.

Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) kelt rheotaxis and position choice are influenced by flow velocity and turbulence in a regulated river

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The migratory behaviour of Atlantic salmon kelts is poorly understood. Due to the Atlantic salmon's considerable socio‐economic and ecological importance, their precipitous population abundance declines, and the population resilience potential of salmon kelts, addressing these knowledge gaps is important.

Assessment of two minimally invasive methodologies for sex identification in the European eel, Anguilla anguilla

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Sex is an important driver of variation in behaviour, ecology and physiology. Sex identification in the Critically Endangered European eel (Anguilla anguilla) currently requires fish sacrifice, or the use of morphological differences such as body length, which can be inaccurate in certain habitats and at intermediate body lengths.
