Movements of Atlantic salmon migrating upstream through a fish‐pass complex in Scotland
Abstract – Movements of adult Atlantic salmon were tracked through a series of four fish passes and an impoundment on the River Conon system, Northern Scotland. Proportions of fish passing individual obstructions ranged from 63 to 100%. The cumulative effect was that only 4 of the 54 tagged fish rea...
