Migration, growth and survival of wild and hatchery‐reared anadromous Arctic charr ( Salvelinus alpinus) in Finnmark, Northern Norway
Two groups of anadromous Arctic charr ( Salvelinus alpinus ) (size 200–350 mm) reared in heated water (6–12° C) under simulated natural photoperiod were individually tagged and released in spring 1988. The fish were released at two sites, in the estuary of the River Halselva and in the fjord, 2 km f...
