Teno Salmon Research

Research and news about Teno/Tana/Deatnu Atlantic salmon and other salmon populations. Co-ordinated by @FishConGen

[Teno Salmon Research @TenoSalmon]

The scientific value of the long-term @LukeFinlandInt @TenoSalmon scale archive is highlighted in a blog by @FishConGen describing some of the "behind the scenes" action that lead to a paper with @JaakkoErkinaro & others recently published in @NatureEcoEvo https://t.co/4lKGnTJSuy

Where in rivers and on shores do pink salmon carcasses accumulate? Researchers are asking fishermen and hikers for help.

An adult male Atlantic salmon gets increasingly frustrated at a precocious parr (sexually mature juvenile) trying to sneak in and fertilise the female’s eggs. He ends up with a mouth full of leaf 😂👍

Some peaceful scenes for a change, despite all the darkness around us.
Visible hints towards spring, but #salmonid eggs are still incubating under thick snow and ice in tributaries of the #Teno/#Tana River @ 70°N ❄🐟
An #otter is also after a meal 🦦

Stop the presses! Sun rises in northernmost #Finland! 🌞

The sun last set in #Utsjoki, Finland's most northern municipality, on 24 November, which means that the period of darkness has lasted a total of 54 days. @ylenews

[Dr. Deborah Berebichez @debbiebere]

A newspaper in #Finland publishes the times of sunrise and sunset in different cities. These days, the sun rises in Helsinki quite late at 8:48am. But in the village of #Utsjoki in the north, the next time the sun will rise is not even next month. It's not until January 16! 🤣

An Editor's Choice article on #Atlanticsalmon #restoration in the ICES Journal of Marine Science.
"With appropriate resources and research to resolve ongoing mysteries, restoration of lost Atlantic salmon populations is absolutely feasible"

The first snow and crisp winter weather are here. The River Teno is filled with ice floes and we've got to enjoy some amazing Northern Lights as well. Welcome winter!❄️

Salmonid trio completed: snorkeling for brown #trout on Fri, Atlantic #salmon on Sat, #alien pink salmon on Sun. Pink salmon spawning almost over in the River Teno/Tana, big differences in egg development, some almost hatching, some not even eyed.

Survey on invasive pink #salmon spawning cont'd at the River #Teno / #Tana in #Finland / #Norway
Spawning site preference of aggregations of tens of individuals in shallow (<50cm) water, very close to shorelines.

Invasive alien pink #salmon spawning in the River #Teno/Tana. Tentative estimate c. 40-50000 ind ascended this year.
The vicious female does not like the camera.
