Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, migrate through multiple habitat types, each having the potential to impact differently upon migration success. The inshore marine coastal zone is arguably disproportionately impacted by potential stressors on populations. We investigated the migration of Atlantic salmon post-smolts (n = 898) from eight rivers (populations) through the inshore marine coastal zone over a 2-year period using acoustic telemetry. Migration success through marine inlets where fish first entered seawater, and through the wider inshore marine coastal area (the Moray Firth, north-east Scotland) was consistently high across populations and across years (mean = 77%). There was no evidence of the high inshore marine predation rates reported elsewhere. Post-smolts utilised well-defined inshore marine migration pathways that were broadly consistent among populations and over time. The pace of migration through the inshore marine coastal habitat was also consistently rapid across populations and time, with the period of migration being seasonally constrained (mean across population = 36.5; range 18-45 days). Taken together with existing literature, this study suggests that the patterns of migration of Atlantic salmon post-smolts through the inshore marine coastal zone are likely highly environment specific.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
