Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) target spawning requirements for selected rivers in salmon fishing area 5 (Bonavista Bay), Newfoundland / by M.F. O'Connell and J.B. Dempson.: Fs70-8/91-17E-PDF

"Target spawning requirements in terms of fluvial and lacustrine habitat were derived for selected rivers in Bonavista Bay, Newfoundland. Spawning requirements were calculated from smolt production estimates using an egg-to-smolt survival rate of 1.25% for fluvial habitat and a rate of 1.9% for lacustrine habitat. Smolt production estimates were derived assuming the production of 3 smolts per unit from fluvial parr rearing habitat and 7 smolts per hectare from lacustrine habitat"--Abstract, page 2.
