Abstract: Abstract Early marine survival of juvenile salmon is intimately associated with their physiological condition during smoltification and ocean entry. Smoltification (parr–smolt transformation) is a developmental process that allows salmon to acquire seawater tolerance in preparation… read more here.

Abstract: Physiological changes during the parr-smolt transformation were investigated in short distance (Chilliwack River) and long-distance (Salmon River) migrating coho salmon Oncorhynchus kisutch populations in British Columbia, Canada. Biochemical and molecular indicators were used to monitor… read more here.
