Abstract

An aquarium system is described which was designed to examine the locomotor activity of juvenile salmon under simulated estuarine conditions. A stable, vertically stratified water column can be established and dissolved oxygen, salinity, water velocity, and light intensity varied during operation under continuous-flow or recirculating conditions. Examples of stratification stability and application to studies of fish behaviour in relation to hypoxia are also presented.
