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 ...

Classification of hydropeaking impacts on Atlantic salmon populations in regulated rivers

Bakken, Tor Haakon; Harby, Atle; Forseth, Torbjørn; Ugedal, Ola; Sauterleute, Julian Friedrich; Halleraker, Jo Halvard; Alfredsen, Knut (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)

This article proposes and demonstrates a new classification system of fish population level effects of hydropeaking operations in rivers. The classification of impacts is developed along two axes; first, the hydromorphological ...

Modelling climate change effects on Atlantic salmon: Implications for mitigation in regulated rivers

Sundt-Hansen, Line Elisabeth Breivik; Hedger, Richard David; Ugedal, Ola; Diserud, Ola Håvard; Finstad, Anders Gravbrøt; Sauterleute, Julian Friedrich; Tøfte, Lena S; Alfredsen, Knut; Forseth, Torbjørn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)

Climate change is expected to alter future temperature and discharge regimes of rivers. These regimes have a strong influence on the life history of most aquatic river species, and are key variables controlling the growth ...

Modelling the effect of hydropeaking‐induced stranding mortality on Atlantic salmon population abundance

Hedger, Richard David; Sauterleute, Julian Friedrich; Sundt-Hansen, Line Elisabeth Breivik; Forseth, Torbjørn; Ugedal, Ola; Diserud, Ola Håvard; Bakken, Tor Haakon (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)

Studies of hydropeaking‐induced stranding mortality on fish populations have been confined to analysis of empirical data and/or short‐term hydraulic‐habitat modelling of individual events and are thus limited as to how ...
