Abstract
Main aspects of the research: * restocking ecologically valuable rivers with reared fish from different strains; * studying the different phases of the salmon life cycle, including downstream migration in tributaries, to increase restocking efficiency; * assessing the impacts oh mosan hydropower stations on downstream migration; * define constructive proposals aiming at the improvement of downstream migration of smolts and the reestablishment of upstream facilities (constructionof fish passes)/ studying of the efficiency of these devices for all fish species.
