The project aims to give an overall picture of the distribution of spawning pink salmon on the Swedish west coast and determine spawning success by examining whether there are any pink salmon fry in selected rivers using environmental DNA (eDNA).
The project which stretches over 2023-2024 is financed through the Swedish Research Council FORMAS and is a collaboration with MIX Research Sweden, The Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences, The County Administrative Board in Halland, The County Administrative Board in Västra Götaland, The County Administrative Board in Skåne and NINA (Norwegian Institute for Nature Research).
