Variation of juvenile Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar ) body composition along sedimentary links.
The objective of this study was to determine the proximate body composition of juvenile Atlantic salmon along the sequence of aquatic habitat types created by longitudinal changes in the riverbed substrate of two rivers (i.e., sedimentary links units). Interesting trends in the body composition were...
