The effect of the water levels during the period from spawning to hatching of whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus (L.)) on the density of newly hatched larvae was examined from a 23-year time series. The density of larvae was estimated in four lakes with contrasting water level regulation regimes in Central Finland using depth zone stratified bongo and tube net sampling in 2000–2022 and 2008–2022. In the regulated Tehinselkä, larval density was also modeled as a function of the whitefish spawning stock, vendace stock indices, and water levels. Larger water level maximum drops during winter were observed in three regulated lakes (41–68 cm) than in the unregulated lake (35 cm). The average larval densities were highest in the unregulated Lake Southern Konnevesi and regulated Tehinselkä, with densities >20 individuals ha−1. The regulated lakes Ruotsalainen and Puula had lower average densities, <10 individuals ha−1. Significant synchrony in the inter-annual variation in the density time series was observed between Tehinselkä and S. Konnevesi as well as Tehinselkä and Ruotsalainen. None of studied water level variables were associated with larval density in any lake. Thus, the small-scale regulation in these Finnish lakes did not show any direct effects on the production of whitefish larvae. Our analysis did not provide information on the potential effects of water level regulation on later life. For example, it did not cover the impact on whitefish food resources or the abundance of competitors and predators regulating whitefish growth and mortality in the juvenile stage.

Resource Partitioning in Food, Space and Time between Arctic Charr (Salvelinus alpinus), Brown Trout (Salmo trutta) and European Whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus) at the Southern Edge of Their Continuous Coexistence
Jensen, Hallvard; Kiljunen, Mikko; Knudsen, Rune; Amundsen, Per-Arne (Public Library of Science, 2017)Arctic charr and European whitefish are considered to be strong competitors in lakes, with the latter usually being the superior species. However, high niche plasticity and lake morphometry may suggestively facilitate ... -
Sulfate toxicity to early life stages of European whitefish (Coregonus lavaretus) in soft freshwater
Karjalainen, Juha; Mäkinen, Mikko; Karjalainen, Anna K. (Elsevier, 2021)Sulfate occurs naturally in the aquatic environment but its elevated levels can be toxic to aquatic life in freshwater environments. We investigated the toxicity of sulfate in humic, soft freshwater to whitefish (Coregonus ... -
Depuration of geosmin- and 2-methylisoborneol-induced off-flavors in recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) farmed European whitefish Coregonus lavaretus
Lindholm-Lehto, P.C.; Vielma, J.; Pakkanen, H.; Alén, R. (Springer, 2019)European whitefish Coregonus lavaretus has increasingly become an important species for aquatic food production, especially in the Nordic countries. Whitefish is produced in traditional cage and pond operations, and in ...
