We experimentally studied the locomotor components of rheotactic response in three age cohorts (0+, 1+, 2+) of Altantic salmon and brown trout parr from, respectively, the Varzuga River main channel and tributary (Kola Peninsula, White Sea drainage basin). A specially designed hydrodynamic device pe...
