The stock composition of Atlantic salmon off west Greenland and in the Labrador Sea in 1978 and a comparison to other years / by D.G. Reddin, R.F. Burfitt and W.H. Lear.: Fs70-8/79-3E-PDF

"The yearly proportions of North American origin salmon caught in research vessel catches at West Greenland were 1969-51%, 1970-35%, 1971-34%, 1972-36%, 1973-49%, 1974-43%, 1975-44%, 1976-43% and 1978-38%. The salmon landings at West Greenland are presented by continent of origin for 1969-1978. The continental proportion was positively correlated with latitude in 1972 at West Greenland and with time at West Greenland in 1974. The continental proportion was negatively correlated with time in the Labrador Sea. Individual fish movement is random but fish from a particular continent or even individual stocks tend to be grouped together in time and space at West Greenland"--Abstract.
