  1. 1. MODELLING THE SMOLT PRODUCTIVITY OF BROWN TROUT (SALMO TRUTTA) IN HAGA Å

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet / Instiutionen för biologi och miljövetenskap

    Author : Lukas Almgren; [2023-10-30]
    Keywords : Brown trout; Salmo trutta; Trout habitat score; THS; Haga å; electro-fishing survey;

    Abstract : The brown trout (Salmo trutta) is a facultatively anadromous species, some individuals migrate from the rearing environment in the rivers to the sea while other individuals stay in fresh water. To determine the suitability of a stream for juvenile trout the organization SGBALANST has developed what is called the "Trout habitat score" (THS) model. READ MORE
