Abstract: Falkegård, M., Foldvik, A., Fiske, P., Erkinaro, J., Orell, P., Niemelä, E., Kuusela, J., Finstad, A.G. & Hindar, K. 2014. Revised first generation spawning targets for the Tana/Teno river system. - NINA Report 1087. 68 pp.\nThe use of management targets as a tool to ensure that salmon fisheries are sustainable is a core part of modern salmon fisheries management. A management target provides us with a benchmark telling us how many salmon has to spawn in a particular river so that this river fulfills its production potential in the future. In Norway, first-generation management targets in the form of spawning targets were established in 2007. In this report, we use the experience gathered from using and evaluating these spawning targets in the years since 2007 to revise the Tana/Teno spawning targets. The main goal was to establish revised spawning targets for all tributaries, both Norwegian and Finnish, and make sure that all targets were obtained in a manner consistent with the assumptions of the first-generation spawning target model.
