    • Can Energy Depletion of Wild Atlantic Salmon Kelts Negotiating Hydropower Facilities Lead to Reduced Survival? 

      Baktoft, Henrik; Gjelland, Karl Øystein; Szabo-Meszaros, Marcell; Silva, Ana T.; Riha, Milan; Økland, Finn; Alfredsen, Knut; Forseth, Torbjørn (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Repeat spawners constitute an important component of Atlantic salmon populations, but survival of post-spawning individuals (kelts) are often compromised by anthropogenic structures such as hydropower plants (HPPs). Potential ...

    • Heart rate and swimming activity as stress indicators for Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) 

      Svendsen, Eirik; Føre, Martin; Økland, Finn; Gräns, Albin; Hedger, Richard David; Alfredsen, Jo Arve; Uglem, Ingebrigt; Rosten, Carolyn; Frank, Kevin; Erikson, Ulf Gøran; Finstad, Bengt (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021-01-30)
      We investigated the relationship between telemetry measurements of heart rate and swimming activity and the physiological status in farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) to assess the potential to use telemetry measurements ...

    • Optical measurement of tissue perfusion changes as an alternative to electrocardiography for heart rate monitoring in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) 

      Svendsen, Eirik; Økland, Finn; Føre, Martin; Randeberg, Lise Lyngsnes; Finstad, Bengt; Olsen, Rolf Erik; Alfredsen, Jo Arve (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Background: Welfare challenges in salmon farming highlights the need to improve understanding of the fish’s response to its environment and rearing operations. This can be achieved by monitoring physiological responses ...

    • Validation of a Swimming Direction Model for the Downstream Migration of Atlantic Salmon Smolts 

      Szabo-Meszaros, Marcell; Silva, Ana T.; Bærum, Kim Magnus; Baktoft, Henrik; Alfredsen, Knut; Hedger, Richard David; Økland, Finn; Gjelland, Karl Øystein; Fjeldstad, Hans-Petter; Calles, Olle; Forseth, Torbjørn (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Fish swimming performance is strongly influenced by flow hydrodynamics, but little is known about the relation between fine-scale fish movements and hydrodynamics based on in-situ investigations. In the presented study, ...
