Description
Summary:forms There are two abundant species of Pacific salmon in the Sakhalin-Kuril region: pink and chum salmon. This paper presents information only on pink production trends because changes in chum salmon abundance are determined mainly by the activity of hatcheries (Kaev 2010a). Pink salmon exhibit rapid growth, short life, and great variability in their abundance, so this species attracts the attention of researchers as a possible indicator of environmental processes. Southern areas of the Sakhalin-Kuril region are important because these areas have a high abundance of pink salmon and the longest continuous record of pink salmon biological data. For this analysis, stocks were analyzed from three southern areas in the region
