Abundances and biological traits of the juveniles trout sampled in the survey of trout abundance Indices (VIGITRUITE®) in the Oir river (France)

Description

 A survey started in 2006 is conducted every year in early autumn (late September to early October) to quantify the abundance of juvenile trout in the Oir river in Normandy. The electric fishing protocol VIGITUITE® is used. It targets trout young of the year (0+ parr), but older fish (juvenile ≥1+) are also caught and included in this dataset. The data consist of abundance indices and biological traits measured on the fish sampled: sex, length, weight and age. The latter is ascertained from scale samples taken from the fish which size does not allow to determine their age unambiguously. The survey is carried out under the Research Observatory on Diadromes Fishes in Coastal Streamss (ERO DiaPFC) program. The data are stored in the database of the ERO. They are used to develop predictive models and tools for providing scientific advice to improve the management of this heritage species.
