Impact of Environmental Conditions on the Spawning Migration of Sea Trout (Salmo trutta L.) in Two Large, Sub‐Arctic River Systems

open access: yesFisheries Management and Ecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The global decline in salmonid stocks has increased the need for knowledge of local adaptations and life history strategies of salmonids. In this study, we used radio‐telemetry tracking data from sea trout populations in two large high‐latitude rivers to model upstream spawning migration speed of trout in response to prevailing environmental ...

Lake sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens) growth and longevity estimated from adult capture–mark–recapture data

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Effective fishery management policy depends on accurate life‐history data, particularly for harvested species. Longevity is a core life‐history trait that is directly related to annual survival and lifetime reproductive potential, but fish longevity is generally not well documented, particularly for long‐lived species.
