American Eel Research

Below is a collection of links to contemporary American eel science. Please contact us to have your work included here or if you are interested in collaborating with us on American eel restoration. We are particularly interested in studying the timing and triggers of outmigration events as well as American eel diets in the basin.

Please visit the SRAFRC archive for annual American eel and fish passage reports from the Susquehanna River.
