2021_transcal: Trap and transport of silver eels from a reservoir to an estuary Citation Verhelst P., Van Wichelen J., Winter HV., Reubens J. 2021. Trap and transport of silver eels from a reservoir to an estuary. https://marineinfo.org/id/dataset/7880 Contact: Verhelst, Pieterjan Availability: This work is licensed under http://vocab.nerc.ac.uk/collection/L08/current/MO meaning it is under moratorium until 2025-09-01 Description In many reservoirs like lakes and ponds, European eels have been stocked either unintentionally or intentionally, for instance for recreational fishing. Since these reservoirs are not connected to rivers, eels are unable to migrate to the sea for spawning. In this study, we investigate if large eels from the Callemoeie reservoir (Belgium) still migrate to the sea when transported to an estuary.
