No.
Salmon migrate as part of their lifestyle. They breed upstream in rivers so that their young are safe from the major open-ocean predators and can grow to a proper size. Once they are large enough, they need to go out into the open ocean to find food large enough to sustain them. When they are old enough to breed, they return to upstream rivers in order to lay their eggs and die, starting the cycle all over again. This has no correlation with climate change/global warming.

Where do salmon migrate to?
Salmon migrate in order to reproduce. Salmon live most of their lives in the ocean, but reproduce in rivers. Spawning time depends on the location. When it is time to spawn, the fish swim upriver. Many are caught by predators such as bears and humans. When the salmon reach the spawning grounds, they will mate, lay eggs, and die. After the eggs hatch, the young will swim downriver to the sea. The Copper River in Alaska is famous for salmon. Here is a more detailed article on salmon spawning. http://animals.howstuffworks.com/fish/salmon-info3.htm
