Radio tracking chinook salmon to determine migration delay at Whitehorse Rapids Dam / by T.R. Cleugh and L.R. Russell. : Fs97-4/1459E-PDF
"Migration pattern of radio-tagged adult chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) were monitored during August, 1979 in the upper Yukon River, Yukon Territory. Escapement, migration pattern, travel time, spawning areas, and delays caused by the hydroelectric facilities and physical obstructions were assessed. Eleven hundred and eighty-four chinook salmon migrated through the Whitehorse Rapids Fishway in August, 1979 and twenty-one fish were radio-tagged. Migrating salmon used both sides of the river and the hydro facilities and physical obstructions resulted in some delay in upstream migration. The minimum and maximum observed delay which occurred at the hydro facilities was 10 hours and 9 days respectively, with a mean delay of 3 days; average delay through the fishway was 7 hours. Fifteen tagged fish were located on the spawning ground"--Abstract, page iv.
