Diel and seasonal locomotor activity patterns in Arctic charr, Salvelinm alpinus (L.)
One‐year‐old Arctic charr, Sulvelinus alpinus (L.), of the Hornavan strain were tested from February 1985 to January 1986 in an attempt to get an increased understanding of the annual rheotactic behaviour as well as the die1 and seasonal locomotor activity pattern.
