• Empirical support for sequential imprinting during downstream migration in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) smolts 

      Haraldstad, Tormod; Forseth, Torbjørn; Olsen, Esben M.; Haugen, Thrond O.; Höglund, Erik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      The precise homing of Atlantic salmon to their natal river and spawning grounds is the foundation for locally adapted genetically differentiated populations across rivers or across river sections. A sequential imprinting ...
    • Hydropower-induced selection of behavioural traits in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) 

      Haraldstad, Tormod; Haugen, Thrond Oddvar; Olsen, Esben M.; Forseth, Torbjørn; Höglund, Erik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Renewable energy projects such as hydropower facilities contribute towards meeting the world`s growing energy demands and urgent need for mitigating climate change. However, such infrastructure has the potential to ...
    • Novel large-scale mapping highlights poor state of sea trout populations 

      Fiske, Peder; Forseth, Torbjørn; Thorstad, Eva Bonsak; Bakkestuen, Vegar; Einum, Sigurd; Falkegård, Morten; Garmo, Øyvind A.; Garseth, Åse Helen; Skoglund, Helge; Solberg, Monica Favnebøe; Utne, Kjell Rong; Vollset, Knut; Vøllestad, Leif Asbjørn; Wennevik, Vidar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)
      1. The state of sea trout in 1251 Norwegian watercourses was assessed based on a scoring system for human pressures, abundance data, and local knowledge. 2. Over 16,000 km of rivers and lakes were available to sea trout ...
    • Predation of Atlantic salmon across ontogenetic stages and impacts on populations 

      Falkegård, Morten; Lennox, Robert; Thorstad, Eva Bonsak; Einum, Sigurd; Fiske, Peder; Garmo, Øyvind Aaberg; Garseth, Åse Helen; Skoglund, Helge; Solberg, Monica Favnebøe; Utne, Kjell Rong; Vollset, Knut; Vøllestad, Leif Asbjørn; Wennevik, Vidar; Forseth, Torbjørn (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Managers and stakeholders increasingly ask whether predation is a driving force behind the poor status of many species, and whether predator control is likely to be a successful management action to intervene. We review ...

    • Reference point based management of Norwegian Atlantic salmon populations 

      Forseth, Torbjørn; Fiske, Peder; Barlaup, Bjørn Torgeir; Gjøsæter, Harald; Hindar, Kjetil; Diserud, Ola Håvard (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2013)
      While management according to biological reference points is well established for many commercial marine fisheries, similar systems for more leisure based fisheries for freshwater fishes are less common. This paper describes ...
    • The major threats to Atlantic salmon in Norway 

      Forseth, Torbjørn; Barlaup, Bjørn Torgeir; Finstad, Bengt; Fiske, Peder; Gjøsæter, Harald; Falkegård, Morten; Hindar, Atle; Mo, Tor Atle; Rikardsen, Audun H.; Thorstad, Eva Bonsak; Vøllestad, Leif Asbjørn; Wennevik, Vidar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)
      Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) is an economically and culturally important species. Norway has more than 400 watercourses with Atlantic salmon and supports a large proportion of the world’s wild Atlantic salmon. Atlantic ...
