About The Norwegian Scientific Advisory Committee for Atlantic Salmon
The Norwegian Scientific Advisory Committee for Atlantic Salmon (Vitenskapelig råd for lakseforvaltning) is an independent body appointed by the Norwegian Environment Agency. Comprising thirteen scientists from seven institutions, the committee evaluates the status of wild Atlantic salmon in Norway, identifies key threats, and provides science-based management advice.
Each year, the committee publishes comprehensive reports detailing their evaluation. While the full reports are in Norwegian, English summaries of the main reports are available to reach a broader audience.
