From an examination of over 20 yr of data from the Northwest Miramichi River and some additional data from small tributaries to the Nashwaak River, highest densities of 100 underyearling and 80 yearling or older Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) per 100 m2 were found at sites where water velocities averaged 50–65 cm/s. At sites with lower or higher water velocities maximum observed densities decreased. Experiments in laboratory streams demonstrated that underyearling Atlantic salmon 30 cm) riffles with boulders (> 25.6 cm diam). Yearlings > 10 cm reduced the numbers of underyearlings < 6 cm in these deeper habitats by chasing them, and occasionally by catching and eating them. Social interactions, such as displays used in territorial defence, did not occur between yearlings and underyearlings until the latter exceeded 6.5 cm, the size at which they beg...
