The pink salmon invasion: a Norwegian perspective.

In the period 1956-1979, more than 220 million of pink salmon Oncorhynchus gorbuscha (Walbaum 1792) eggs from the southern part of Sakhalin Island in the Pacific Ocean were transported to the north-western part of Russia (Gordeeva et al., 2015). The hatched fry were stocked to several rivers draining to the White Sea and Barents Sea, which is part of the Arctic Ocean, bordering on the North Atlantic Ocea.
