| Salmonids undergo a developmental transition from parr to smolt that involves a number of physiological and morphological changes. |
|
| In the Kodiak harbor, the salmon seine fleet was loading supplies and heading out for an opening the next day, and schools of inch-long smolt darkened the water. |
|
| And even if they manage to climb the river, many of their smolt are chewed up by power-station turbines on the way back to the sea. |
|
| During the freshwater phase, which is land-based, the salmon grow from the egg to the smolt. |
|
| If the reason for the declining smolt population at sea is not established and addressed, Atlantic salmon will suffer the same fate as cod. |
|
| Again, our greatest concern is the downward trend in smolt survival at sea. |
|
| Aged returns from reared smolts released via the Mactaquac smolt migration channel have been used as an index of marine survival. |
|
| To examine expression levels, muscle samples were taken from three body positions of red and white muscle of five parr and five smolt rainbow trout. |
|
| In this case, the claim centres mainly on the purchases of smolt from companies related to those in the sample. |
|
| Generally, when smolt leave the fresh water, they're approximately eight, nine, or ten inches long. |
|
| I'm in the estuary of the Fraser River, just upstream from where I watched the coho salmon smolt take its first full saltwater dunk a few days ago. |
|
| Despite highly variable survival from river to river, there has been no consistent improvement in smolt survival at sea since the closure of the commercial fishery. |
|
| Salmon parr and smolt have been caught in the Mersey's tributaries, the River Goyt and the River Bollin. |
|
| It was suggested that short-term prices were governed by factors such as weather, disease and smolt supply while long-term price trends depended upon production costs. |
|
| In any case, the investigation did not reveal, nor did any of the interested parties claim, a significant change of smolt costs developments in the future. |
|
| In the short term, yes, we have to hit the poaching or else you're not going to have a resource that's strong enough to get the smolt out there to even do a survey on it. |
|
| In response to this claim, it must be noted that the Community institutions were not in a position to verify the cost of production of the smolt, as this information was not provided by the companies. |
|
| Resources must be allocated or increased to establish baseline data on the Atlantic salmon resource, and to establish the reason for the declining smolt survival at sea. |
|
| Only 10 per cent of the deposited eggs survive through to the smolt stage. |
|
| When the salmon is in the estuary it is known as a smolt. |
|
|
|
| Also, it should be noted that the average smolt cost submitted by the CI did not refer to any average smolt weight, which is, however, necessary to make a meaningful evaluation of these costs. |
|
| Three years was considered an appropriate time period as this is the average length of time that it takes to grow a salmon from a smolt to a harvestable salmon. |
|
| In our own tongue salmon are fry as babies, parr as children, smolt as adolescents, and grilse as adults. |
|
| He claims to have information that the smolt are going to Europe. |
|
| We're doing enhancement projects, unfortunately not with Canada, where we're trying to, similar to the salmonid enhancement program, grow out a stronger smolt to go to sea so it's integrating with the wild fishery. |
|
| No person shall fish for or have in his possession in a park any salmon fry, parr, smolt or spent salmon, also known as slink, black or kelt salmon. |
|
| The coin, which features a salmon and smolt, is the work of designer Emmet Mullins and is a modern take on the 1928 floirin by Percy Metcalfe. |
|
| In recent days, his team had released 20,000 young smolt salmon, each four or five inches long, upstream. |
|
| Streams above Kielder reservoir are also stocked and the young fish are caught in a smolt trap and taken around the dam for release. |
|
| They target a series of four dams on the Snake River that create dead water and allegedly prevent the young smolt from reaching the ocean. |
|
| Grilse, kelt, parr and smolt are all terms for which fish during various stages of development? |
|
| Hedging its bets, Norwegian fanned salmon producer Pan Fish has purchased a salmon farming company and a smolt producer in Scotland. |
|
| This is one of 900-plus samples that were analyzed by Alexandra Morton-you may have heard about her research-during last summer's outmigration of smolt from the Broughton Archipelago. |
|
| Among the stages of the trip are swim-up fry, stream predators, Wooley Creek Refuge, a smolt in the estuary, shark strike, salmon trollers, homing, and spawning. |
|
| The smolt body chemistry changes, allowing them to live in salt water. |
