Brown trouts abundance (IAT) - Observatoire Sélune

The re-establishment of the river continuum of the Sélune after the levelling of the dams will enable the colonization of the upstream part of the basin which was previously inaccessible to trout.



As a result, monitoring of amphihaline fish populations on the Sélune is carried out on the main river and its tributaries, both upstream and downstream of the former dams. These enable us to understand the dynamics of these common trout populations before, during and after dam removal.



Regarding the trouts, the inventory is carried out using the VIGITRUITE® protocol.

This is a standardized protocol for estimating the abundance of juvenile trout (Salmo trutta) in rivers. It is based on sampling per unit effort, a unit fixed at 5 minutes of effective fishing, and thus delivers abundances in numbers of juveniles per 5 minutes. Abacuses for converting abundances into densities are available, and a guide to interpreting densities, from low to excellent, is proposed. Compared with traditional inventories, this protocol enables a smaller number of people to be mobilized in the field. The protocol applies to watercourses up to 8 m wide and never more than 60 cm deep.



It has been validated on granite and limestone rivers in Brittany and Normandy.



VIGITRUITE® specifically targets juveniles of the year (0+) and yearlings (1+). The 0+ abundance

provides information on generation replacement (or recruitment), useful for population demographic monitoring.

The abundance of 0+ and 1+ is also a reflection of the quality of the trutticole habitat, and of specific attacks on its

integrity (pollution, sedimentation, fragmentation in particular). It is a diagnostic tool for trout populations

and their river habitats.



This protocol is applied in September of the years in question: every 2 years between 2012 and 2020, then every year from 2021 to 2027.

The year 2020 is special because of the COVID.

For more information on acquisition conditions, please refer to the Sélune biocenosis observatory reports, the links to which are provided in this document.



This dataset provides juvenile trout abundance data (0+, 1+ and cumulative), by station and fishing session.
