Atlantic salmons catches - Selune Observatory

The opening of the dams should impact the functioning of Atlantic salmon populations migrating up the Sélune River and its tributaries. Restoring the river's ecological continuity will alter population flows by allowing amphihaline sea trout to migrate further upstream and native trout to move downstream and upstream of the dams. The trout population is monitored at a network of stations covering the entire Sélune basin using an abundance index, which is carried out every two years before 2021 and every year since then.

Field campaigns comply with the fishing protocol developed by INRAE and OFB. The aim of this method is to estimate the abundance of juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) at a station (or sector). This protocol targets juveniles of the year (aged 0+) whose abundance reflects the renewal of generations within the population (or recruitment) and survival after the embryonic development phases under gravel and the first months of life in the open environment. Field campaigns are carried out by INRAE and the Manche d'Ille-et-Vilaine Federation for Fishing and the Protection of the Aquatic Environment (FDAPPMA50 and FDAAPPMA35).

This dataset provides individual biometric data on Atlantic salmon caught during PAS fishing sessions in the Sélune watershed, by station and by fishing session.

Statement

Monitoring of amphihaline fish populations in the Sélune is carried out on the main course and its tributaries, both upstream and downstream of the old dams. This allows us to understand the dynamics of these populations before, during and after the dams were demolished. Brown trout, Atlantic salmon, European eel and lamprey (marine, river and brook) are species of high conservation importance. Populations are monitored using various inventory protocols (electrofishing, trapping, DNAe) supplemented by sampling to better characterise the populations (genetics, scalimetry).

The objective of this monitoring is:

- to estimate the recruitment level in 0+ and 1+, the evolution of cohorts, abundances and densities of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar);

- monitor biometrics (measurements, scale sampling and scalimetric readings) at reference stations;

- study intra- and inter-population genetic structure and the impact of individuals migrating downstream and upstream of dams on the entire population (fin sampling).

Sampling has been carried out annually since 2022 and biannually prior to that.

The protocol implemented is the protocol "Gaétan Pottier, Frédéric Marchand, Sabrina Servant, Etienne Prévost. Salmon abundance index (IAS). Guides and Protocols Collection. Scientific electrofishing in continental aquatic environments,

INRAE; OFB, 2022. ffhal-03757386".

The stations (also known as study sectors) were located using a hiking GPS (expected planimetric accuracy <= 20 m).
