Percent mortality in juvenile pink salmon within two weeks following transfer to SW from FW. Groups of developing pink salmon were transferred to SW from FW every two weeks starting at hatch (0 weeks). Fish were held at 5°C throughout and completed yolk absorption at 12 weeks post-hatch. Pink salmon of the same cohort naturally emerged from gravel to enter SW at a developmental state similar to 12 weeks post-hatch. (From Gallagher [50].)
