Length growth of Arctic charr, Salvelinus alpinus (L., 1758) in the Hornsund region

Abstract

Results of studies on length and age composition and length growth rate of the Arctic charr in River Revelva and Lake Svartvatnet are presented. The growth rate was determined from scales, by back calculations utilizing the Rosa Lee formula. The data obtained served to characterize growth of the species in the area by means of the von Bertalanffy equation.
