The Atlantic salmon is one of the most prized and exploited species worldwide, being at the centre of a massive sports fishing industry and increasingly as the major farmed species in many countries worldwide. Atlantic Salmon Ecology is a landmark publication, both scientifically important and visually attractive. Comprehensively covering all major aspects of the relationship of the Atlantic salmon with its environment, chapters include details of migration and dispersal, reproduction, habitat requirements, feeding, growth rates, competition, predation, parasitsm, population dynamics, effects of landscape use, hydro power development, climate change, and exploitation. The book closes with a summary and look at possible future research directions. Backed by the Norwegian Research Council and with editors and contributors widely known and respected, Atlantic Salmon Ecology is an essential purchase for all those working with this species, including fisheries scientists and managers, fish biologists, ecologists, physiologists, environmental biologists and aquatic scientists, fish and wildlife department personnel and regulatory bodies. Libraries in all universities and research establishments where these subjects are studied and taught should have copies of this important publication.

"This is undoubtedly the most comprehensive and up–to–date review of Atlantic salmon ecology for several decades and I would recommend it to any with an interest in the subject. I expect this will be the authoritative text on the subject, probably for the next two decades." (Journal of Fish Biology, 2011)
"As can be seen from this brief review of the contents, this book is a very comprehensive review of the ecology of Atlantic salmon and should be read by all those involved in salmon research, conservation and management." (Freshwater Biological Association, 2011)
"The editors (of the Norwegian Institute for Nature Research, Norwegian U. of Science and Technology, Norwegian College of Fisheries Science at the U. of Tromso, and Oslo U. College, all in Norway) present a text aiming to provide a comprehensive treatment of the ecology of the Atlantic salmon." (SciTech Book News, December 2010)

The Atlantic Salmon is a complex species, transforming from a freshwater to sea fish, migrating across thousands of miles of ocean and returning to the river where it was born. Atlantic Salmon Ecology provides comprehensive coverage of all the major aspects of the ecology of this amazing and hugely biologically and commercially important species.
Coverage in this landmark book includes novel findings and state–of–the–art knowledge on migration, reproduction, habitat, feeding, growth, competition, predation, parasitism, population dynamics and landscape use. Chapters also include coverage of some of the major problems faced by salmon due to anthropogenic disturbance, including alteration of in–stream habitats, hydropower development, the spread of parasites, including Gyrodactylus salaris and sea lice problems associated with aquaculture, pollution, climate change and fishing mortality.
Carefully edited, and beautifully produced, with contributions from over 40 scientists from all the countries where Atlantic Salmon is a major species, Atlantic Salmon Ecology is an essential purchase for all those involved in the study and management of Atlantic Salmon, including fish biologists, aquatic scientists, ecologists, environmental scientists, fisheries managers, NGO representatives, and personnel involved in the salmon farming industry. Libraries in all universities and research establishments where biological sciences, fisheries, and aquaculture are studied and taught should have copies of this exceptional volume on their shelves.
