Domesticated escapees on the run: The second-generation monitoring programme reports the numbers and proportions of farmed Atlantic salmon in >200 Norwegian rivers annually
Glover, Kevin; Urdal, Kurt; Næsje, Tor; Skoglund, Helge; Florø-Larsen, Bjørn; Otterå, Håkon Magne; Fiske, Peder; Heino, Mikko Petteri; Aronsen, Tonje; Sægrov, Harald; Diserud, Ola Håvard; Barlaup, Bjørn Torgeir; Hindar, Kjetil; Bakke, Gunnar O; Solberg, Ingrid; Lo, Håvard; Solberg, Monica Favnebøe; Karlsson, Sten; Skaala, Øystein; Lamberg, Anders; Kanstad-Hanssen, Øyvind; Muladal, Rune; Skilbrei, Ove Tommy; Wennevik, Vidar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Norway is the world’s largest producer of farmed Atlantic salmon and is home to ∼400 rivers containing wild salmon populations. Farmed escapees, a reoccurring challenge of all cage-based marine aquaculture, pose a threat ... -
Genetic screening of farmed Atlantic salmon escapees demonstrates that triploid fish display reduced migration to freshwater
Glover, Kevin; Bos, J. B.; Urdal, Kurt; Madhun, Abdullah Sami; Sørvik, Anne Grete Eide; Unneland, Laila; Seliussen, Bjørghild Breistein; Skaala, Øystein; Skilbrei, Ove Tommy; Tang, Y.; Wennevik, Vidar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-05)Each year, hundreds of thousands of farmed Atlantic salmon escape from fish farms into the wild. Some of these escapees enter freshwater, and manage to interbreed with native populations. To hinder further genetic introgression ... -
Swimming with the fishes: validating drift diving to identify farmed Atlantic salmon escapees in the wild
Mahlum, Shad Kenneth; Skoglund, Helge; Wiers, Tore; Norman, Eirik; Barlaup, Bjørn Torgeir; Wennevik, Vidar; Glover, Kevin; Urdal, Kurt; Bakke, Gunnar O; Vollset, Knut (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Escaped farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar interbreeding with wild conspecifics represents a threat to the genetic integrity and viability of wild populations. Therefore, it is necessary to accurately quantify escapees in ... -
Time series covering up to four decades reveals major changes and drivers of marine growth and proportion of repeat spawners in an Atlantic salmon population
Harvey, Alison C.; Skaala, Øystein; Borgstrøm, Reidar; Andersen-Fjeldheim, Per Tommy; Andersen-Fjeldheim, Kaja Christine; Utne, Kjell Rong; Johnsen, Ingrid Askeland; Fiske, Peder; Winterthun, Synnøve; Knutar, Sofie; Sægrov, Harald; Urdal, Kurt; Glover, Kevin Alan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Wild Atlantic salmon populations have declined in many regions and are affected by diverse natural and anthropogenic factors. To facilitate management guidelines, precise knowledge of mechanisms driving population changes ...
