• Adult recaptures of farmed Atlantic salmon post-smolts allowed to escape during summer 

      Skilbrei, Ove (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-12-21)
      The influence of time of escape on survival to adulthood was tested in farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar smolt and post-smolts. Escape events were simulated in a small fjord in western Norway during and after the natural ...
    • Density-dependent migratory waves in the marine pelagic ecosystem 

      Fauchald, Per; Mauritzen, Mette; Gjøsæter, Harald (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2006-11)
      The migration of large aggregations of animals that sweep through the landscape is a phenomenon with large consequences in many ecosystems. It has been suggested that such migrations are mediated by resource depletion. ...
    • An effective method for the recapture of escaped farmed salmon 

      Chittenden, Cedar M.; Rikardsen, Audun H.; Skilbrei, Ove; Davidsen, Jan G.; Halttunen, Elina; Skarðhamar, Jofrid; McKinley, R. Scott (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-04-04)
      The search for effective strategies to prevent and mitigate accidental releases of aquaculture fishes is on-going. To test a new recapture strategy and evaluate the individual dispersal behaviour of escaped farmed Atlantic ...
    • Reduced migratory performance of farmed Atlantic salmon post-smolts from a simulated escape during autumn 

      Skilbrei, Ove (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-11-10)
      Escape of migratory finfish species from fish farms, such as Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L., offer a challenge when considering the environmental risks of cage culture. The migratory behaviour of groups of cultured salmon ...
