Inferring marine distribution of Canadian and Irish Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) in the North Atlantic from tissue concentrations of bio-accumulated Caesium 137
tissue concentrations of bio-accumulated caesium 137 (137Cs). Salmon from Canadian and Irish waters demonstrated concentrations (0.20+ 0.14 Bq kg21 and 0.19+ 0.09 Bq kg21, mean+ s.d., respectively) suggesting similar oceanic feeding distributions during migration. Canadian aquaculture escapees had a...
