Overview

This volume provides a selection of the most significant papers presented at the Fourth Conference on Fish Telemetry in Europe, in Trondheim, Norway, in 2001. Papers are focused on migratory patterns and habitat utilisation, social behaviour, physiological ecology, fisheries management, effects of human impact on fish populations, aquaculture and methodology, and new technology. This book is aimed at scientists and engineers actively involved in aquatic telemetry projects, aquatic biologists (marine and freshwater), fisheries biologists and managers.

Movement of radio-tagged anadromous sea lamprey during the spawning migration in the River Mondego (Portugal).- Outcomes of a pilot fish telemetry workshop for developing countries.- Use of radio telemetry and electrofishing to assess spawning by transplanted Atlantic salmon.- Migratory and route-seeking behaviour of ascending Atlantic salmon in the regulated River Tuloma.- Initial mortality of radio-tagged Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) smolts following release downstream of a hydropower station.- Reactions in individual fish to strobe light. Field and aquarium experiments performed on whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus).- Use of an extensive radio receiver network to document Pacific lamprey (Lampetra tridentata) entrance efficiency at fishways in the Lower Columbia River, USA.- The impact of small physical obstacles on upstream movements of six species of fish.- Use of telemetry in the development and application of biological criteria for habitat hydraulic modeling.- Use of telemetry and hydraulic modeling to evaluate and improve fish guidance efficiency at a louver and bypass system for downstream-migrating Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) smolts and kelts.- Net ground speed of downstream migrating radio-tagged Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) and brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) smolts in relation to environmental factors.- Behaviour of tigerfish Hydrocynus brevis in the River Niger, Mali, as revealed by simultaneous telemetry of activity and swimming depth.- Winter movements and activity of signal crayfish Pacifastacus leniusculus in an upland river, determined by radio telemetry.- Activity patterns of juvenile Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) in Buckley Cove, Newfoundland.- Vertical distribution and movements of brown bullhead (Ameiurus nebulosus Lesueur 1819) in Motuoapa Bay, southern Lake Taupo, New Zealand.- Integration of acoustic telemetry and GIS to identify potential spawning areas for lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush).- Swimming patterns and behaviour of upriver-migrating adult pink (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) and sockeye (O. nerka) salmon as assessed by EMG telemetry in the Fraser River, British Columbia, Canada.- Diel activity pattern of juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in early and late winter.- The use of winter refuges by roach tagged with miniature radio transmitters.- Migratory behaviour of adult pikeperch (Stizostedion lucioperca) in a lowland river.- Habitat utilisation by pike Esox lucius L. during winter floods in a southern English chalk river.- Multi-torsking: simultaneous measurements of cod behaviour show differences between North Sea and Irish Sea stocks.- The dispersal patterns and behaviour of North Sea cod (Gadus morhua) studied using electronic data storage tags.- Quantifying the activity and movement of perch in a temperate lake by integrating acoustic telemetry and a geographic information system.- A simple activity monitoring radio tag for fish.- The potential use of PIT telemetry for identifying and tracking crayfish in their natural environment.- The effects of surgically-implanted dummy radio transmitters on the behaviour of wild Atlantic salmon smolts.- Surgical implantation of telemetry transmitters in fish: how much have we learned?.- A wireless communication system for determining site fidelity of juvenile dusky groupers Epinephelus marginatus (Lowe, 1834) using coded acoustic transmitters.- Effect of position-fixing interval on estimated swimming speed and movement pattern of fish tracked with a stationary positioning system.- The combined use of acoustic tracking and echosounding to investigate the movement and distribution of common bream (Abramis brama) in the River Trent, England.- Tracking acoustic transmitters by code division multiple access (CDMA)-based telemetry.- Taking the bait: in situ voluntary ingestion of acoustic transmitters by Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua).

Reviews

In a fairly slim volume 33 papers [...] are gathered together in a must-have text for anyone working with or planning aquatic telemetry research. [...] I have found this book very useful, and during review have recommended several of the papers to students and colleagues. I don't think anyone would be disappointed with this book in their personal or research library - I know I plan to continue to refer to it often, I already have. (Aquatic Ecology, 37 (2003)
