The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

A brief discussion on the 2% tag/bodymass rule of thumb (2005, background): “In a study of Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) smolts tagged with 2.6-g dummy transmitters, most fish were well below the 2%ratio, but for some small ( 50 g) individuals, the tag/bm ratio exceeded 5% (Jepsen et al., 2001).”
Advancing the surgical implantation of electronic tags in fish: a gap analysis and research agenda based on a review of trends in intracoelomic tagging effects studies (2011, background): “For example, Jepsen et al. (2001) examined the physiological response of Chinook salmon smolts to gastric and intracoelomic radiotagging.”
Maximum tag to body size ratios for an endangered coho salmon (O. kisutch) stock based on physiology and performance (2008, background): “…Salmo salar, (Greenstreet and Morgan 1989; Moore et al. 1990; Lacroix et al. 2004); chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha (Adams et al. 1998a,b; Jepsen et al. 2001; Anglea et al. 2004); cutthroat trout, Salmo clarki (Zale et al. 2005) and rainbow trout/steelhead, Oncorhynchus mykiss (Lucas…”
The Effects of Biotelemetry Transmitter Presence and Attachment Procedures on Fish Physiology and Behavior (2003, background): “Jepsen et al. (2001) observed an almost three times increase in plasma cortisol levels and significant increases in plasma lactate and glucose in surgically implanted juvenile chinook salmon 3 h after surgery, compared with unhandled control fish.”
