TAXONOMIC COVERAGE:
Organisms studied
Methods:

The response of fish to fertilization was determined by monitoring adult grayling from control and fertilized river reaches. Adult and juvenile fish within a 1 km zone in each section were weighed, measured, tagged and released.

Notes: Used only one weir located at 2.0k. High water brought weir down 3 times (6 Jul-10 July, 14 Jul-16 July, 20 Jul-25 July) resulting in low recapture rates in the two zones.
