Probability of Atlantic Salmon Post-Smolts Encountering a Tidal Turbine Installation in Minas Passage, Bay of Fundy

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
Tidal stream energy is a renewable energy resource that might be developed to offset carbon emissions. A tidal energy demonstration (TED) area has been designated in Minas Passage, Bay of Fundy, for testing and installing marine hydrokinetic (MHK ...

Shorter juvenile telomere length is associated with higher survival to spawning in migratory Atlantic salmon [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The risk of mortality associated with a long-distance migration will depend on an animal's physiological state, as well as the prevailing ecological conditions.

The geometry of reaction norms yields insights on classical fitness functions for Great Lakes salmon. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Life history theory examines how characteristics of organisms, such as age and size at maturity, may vary through natural selection as evolutionary responses that optimize fitness.

Swimming behavior of emigrating Chinook Salmon smolts

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2022
Swimming behavior of Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) smolts affects transit time, route selection and survival in complex aquatic ecosystems. Behavior quantified at the river reach and junction scale is of particular importance for route selection and predator avoidance, though few studies have developed field-based approaches for quantifying

Quinnat salmon (oncorhynchus tshawytscha) spawning in the Rangitikei river [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
The occurrence of adult quinnat salmon {Oncorhynchus tshawytscha (Walbaum)) in the Rangitikei River, North Island, New Zealand, has been confirmed on several occasions since 1922, but juvenile salmon have not previously been recorded.

Quantitative Genetics of Smoltification Status at the Time of Seawater Transfer in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo Salar)

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
High mortality during grow out in the sea is a challenge for farmed Atlantic salmon production in Norway and globally, which is partly attributed to suboptimal smolt quality.

Environmental and Genetic (vgll3) Effects on the Prevalence of Male Maturation Phenotypes in Domesticated Atlantic Salmon

open access: yesFishes, 2023
Pre-harvest male maturation is problematic for Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) farmers and is regulated by the environment and genetics (e.g., vgll3). Five families of all-male salmon parr (produced using YY males crossed with XX females) with different ...
