Description

Temporary acoustic network to track downstream migration of silver eels (Anguilla anguilla) from the River Mondego (Portugal). Eel downstream migration was monitored with automatic receivers (VR2W - listening at 69kHz) deployed at four locations along the river course, from the first impassable obstacle (downstream Raiva Dam) up to the river mouth (67 km).
