The impact of a pesticide on the physiology and behaviour of hatchery‐reared Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, smolts during the transition from fresh water to the marine environment
Abstract Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., smolts were exposed to environmental levels of the pesticide atrazine in a hatchery, tagged with acoustic transmitters and released into fresh water at the peak of the smolt run. The subsequent movements of the smolts were monitored within the freshwater and...
