Migrations of Fish in Lake Glubokoе

Abstract

Daily and seasonal cyclicity, directivity, and area of the fish migration in the main ecological zones of Lake Glubokoe have been revealed with the help of hydroacoustic complexes. Mass appearance of fish in the epipelagial and profundal of the water body is observed at dusk and at night, and they return to the littoral and sublittoral with the dawn. In the summer, vertical migrations of fish occur mainly in the near-surface layers of the water column, and the fish also occupy the profundal in late autumn.
