Migration of Atlantic salmon post-smolts in a fjord with high infestation pressure of salmon lice

We compared the ... -
Redefining the oceanic distribution of Atlantic salmon
Rikardsen, Audun H.; Righton, David; Strøm, John Fredrik; Thorstad, Eva Bonsak; Gargan, Patrick G.; Sheehan, Timothy F.; Økland, Finn; Chittenden, Cedar; Hedger, Richard David; Næsje, Tor; Renkawitz, Mark; Sturlaugsson, Johannes; Caballero, Pablo; Baktoft, Henrik; Davidsen, Jan Grimsrud; Halttunen, Elina; Wright, Serena; Finstad, Bengt; Aarestrup, Kim (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Determining the mechanisms driving range-wide reductions in Atlantic salmon marine survival is hindered by an insufcient understanding of their oceanic ecology and distribution. We attached 204 pop-up satellite archival ... -
Relationship between marine growth and sea survival of two anadromous salmonid fish species
Jensen, Arne Johan; Finstad, Bengt; Fiske, Peder; Forseth, Torbjørn; Rikardsen, Audun H.; Ugedal, Ola (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)This study found empirical evidence supporting the “growth–survival” paradigm in the marine phase of Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) and brown trout (Salmo trutta). The paradigm postulates that larger or faster-growing ... -
Repeatable individual variation in migration timing in two anadromous salmonids and ecological consequences
Jensen, Arne Johan; Finstad, Bengt; Fiske, Peder; Diserud, Ola Håvard; Thorstad, Eva Bonsak (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Consistent individual differences in behavior have been demonstrated for many animals, but there are few studies of consequences of such repeated behavior in the wild. We tested consistency in migration timing to and from ... -
Salmon lice sampled from wild Atlantic salmon and sea trout throughout Norway display high frequencies of the genotype Associated with pyrethroid resistance
Fjørtoft, Helene Børretzen; Nilsen, Frank; Besnier, Francois; Stene, Anne; Bjørn, Pål Arne; Tveten, Ann-Kristin; Aspehaug, Vidar Teis; Finstad, Bengt; Glover, Kevin (Journal article, 2019)Atlantic salmon Salmo salar aquaculture is based on the use of open-pen sea cages, with the consequence that farmed fish are both recipients and sources of pathogens from surrounding waters. Currently, the parasitic salmon ... -
Salmon louse infestation in wild brown trout populations generates multi-modal mixture distributions
Diserud, Ola Håvard; Hedger, Richard David; Finstad, Bengt; Hendrichsen, Ditte Katrine; Jensen, Arne Johan; Ugedal, Ola (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)For successful evaluation of the overall effects of salmon louse infestation on brown trout population dynamics, it is crucial to have a realistic understanding of how lice infestation distributions are generated and how ... -
Statistical and ecological challenges of monitoring parasitic salmon lice infestations in wild salmonid fish stocks
Helland, Ingeborg Palm; Uglem, Ingebrigt; Jansen, Peder A; Diserud, Ola Håvard; Bjørn, Pål Arne; Finstad, Bengt (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015)Ecological monitoring programmes should provide precise data to inform management, but the data quality is often limited by methodological challenges and the need for cost-effective sampling. Parasite infestations are ... -
