Effects of Body Size and River Environment on the Upstream Migration of Adult Pacific Lampreys (2009, background): “The fishways also lack suitable lamprey attachment substrate in some locations, reducing the effectiveness of the “burst-and-attach” strategy lampreys use to overcome velocity barriers (eg, Moser et al. 2002a ; Quintella et al.”
There and back again: migration in freshwater fishes (2014, background): “2004), muscle activity (Quintella et al. 2004), acceleration (Nakamura et al.”
Extreme inefficiency of two conventional, technical fishways used by European river lamprey (Lampetra fluviatilis) (2013, background): “In addition, the cumulative effect of attempting to traverse 14 ramps at maximum recorded burst speeds is liable to be substantial; electromyogram telemetry of sea lamprey during movement through difficult passage areas suggested an increasing onset of fatigue after each burst movement (Quintella et”
Similarities, Differences, and Unknowns in Biology and Management of Three Parasitic Lampreys of North America (2010, background): “Anadromous sea lampreys also use this mode of swimming to negotiate difficult passage areas (Quintella et al. 2004).”
