Migration patterns in Norwegian spring-spawning herring: why young fish swim away from the wintering area in late summer

Norwegian spring-spawning herring Clupea harengus make extensive feeding migrations in the Norwegian Sea during summer. At the end of the feeding season herring may meet conflicting demands between moving to areas with uncertain food abundance and predation risk and migrating to the wintering area at the coast.
