The consequence of early thermal experience for subsequent growth patterns was investigated in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L,), Spring- and autumn-running salmon mere caught in upland (Baddoch) and lowland (Sheeoch) tributaries of the River Dee, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, respectively, on the final s...
