Feeding of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., parr in the subarctic River Teno and three tributaries in northernmost Finland
Abstract— Available food and feeding of Atlantic salmon parr were studied in different parts of a subarctic river in northernmost Finland, the River Teno: in the large main stem, in a major tributary influenced by lakes, and in two minor tributaries. The highest density of benthic organisms was foun...
