Effects of hydraulic characteristics on energy use and behaviour of adult upriver migrating sockeye (Oncorhynchus nerka) and pink (O. gorbuscha) salmon
Adult Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus sp.) undertake upriver migrations to reach their spawning grounds. Because these fish cease feeding upon entry to freshwater they depend entirely upon energy reserves to complete their upriver spawning migration.
