Behaviour of adult Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., in the estuary of the River Ribble in relation to variations in dissolved oxygen and tidal flow
Twenty adult returning salmon were tracked in the estuary of the R. Ribble using acoustic oxygensensing transmitters during summer when a pronounced dissolved oxygen (DO) sag develops. Excluding two mortalities, 75% of these fish left the estuary to sea. Fish in the estuary moved to and fro with the...
