Environment description

In 1990, NASCO agreed to establish a database of salmon rivers categorised according to their stock status (not threatened with loss, threatened with loss, restored, maintained or lost). The river was named as the main stem of the system of rivers and tributaries at the point where it reaches the sea. The database contained the river name, category and location and in some cases additional information (e.g. catchment area, mean annual flow, details of threats or the cause of loss). Information on approximately 2500 rivers was included
