Atlantic salmon Salmo salar are exposed to parasitic sea lice as they enter the marine environment, particularly in areas with high densities of open net-pen salmon farming, where infestations can reach harmful levels.

Modelled distribution of salmon lice in a Norwegian fjord
No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Salmon lice is a huge problem for both wild and farmed salmonid fish in fjords. An assessment of salmon lice in a fjord system will bring forward the knowledge of wild salmonid fish stocks and help manage salmonid fish farming.
