| PROJECT: | Why do brown trout become sea trout? | |||||||
| Management Tool / Applied Outcome | Related Policy | |||||||
| A | Understanding the connection between sea trout production and habitat productivity | European Habitat Directive (This will allow sea trout producing streams to be predicted and be protected to help increase sea trout numbers) | ||||||
| B | Determination if any gene flow between sympatric populations of anadromous and resident brown trout | (This will allow the relationship between resident and anadromous brown trout to be established and help define what a genetically interbreeding population is.) | ||||||
| C | Determination of phenotypic and genotypic structuring of resident brown trout on a large, medium and fine scale | (This will allow effective management of resident brown trout populations to conserve the phenotypic and genotypic variation amongst populations) | ||||||
