Abstract

Scales are collected annually from smolt trapping operations in Maine as wellas other sampling opportunities (e.g. marine surveys, fishery sampling etc.). Scale samples are imaged and age, origin, and measurement data are collected as needed for specific growth-related research.

Title: Atlantic Salmon Scale Measurements
Short Name: Atlantic Salmon Scale Measurements
Status: Completed
Abstract:

Scales are collected annually from smolt trapping operations in Maine as wellas other sampling opportunities (e.g. marine surveys, fishery sampling etc.). Scale samples are imaged and age, origin, and measurement data are collected as needed for specific growth-related research.

Purpose:

To archive Atlantic salmon scale age images and associated age, rearing origin, and measurement data so that it is available for assessments and research projects.
