The use of morphometric analysis to predict the swimming efficiency of two Neotropical long-distance migratory species in fish passage

This study investigated the external body morphology (based on morphometric data) and the swimming efficiency in fish passages (based on the ascent time in a fish ladder) of two Neotropical long-distance migratory species. The fish were collected in the fish ladder of the Porto Primavera Hydroelectr...
