What is the canonical explanation behind the king salmonid meter in splatoon 3. In other words, what causes them to appear?

The scent of Inklings/Octolings in their territory angers them, as the smell spreads to a wider area the more salmon run shifts you play. This eventually leads to them feeling threatened enough to travel all the way back to the surface in a rage to deal with the intruders in their turf.

How did octarians lose the great turf war and how did this impact the boss battles in Splatoon 1 and 2?

The octarians were very close to winning, but at the time their Octoweaponry (Octostomp, Octowhirl, etc.) operated on plugged in electricity, so once they went too far out of their turf all weapons got unplugged, leaving octarians completely defenseless from a counter-attack. Octoweapons were heavily reworked before the events of Splatoon 1, now being able to use the smaller zapfish and as a power source and Octavio's cut tentacles for internal operating. That's why they now have full mobility in boss fights without the worry of plugs.
