Observations on Zooplankton in Some Lagoons in Turkey J. Black Sea/Mediterranean Environment Vol. 18, No.2: 208-222 (2012) RESEARCH ARTICLE Observations on zooplankton in some lagoons in Turkey M. Ruşen Ustaoğlu *, Didem Özdemir Mis, Cem Aygen Section of Limnology, Department of Hydrobiology, Ege University, Faculty of Fisheries, 35100, Bornova-Izmir, TURKEY *Corresponding author : [email protected] Absract In this study, zooplankton samples collected from some lagoons in 1995 and 1996 with the scope of management and development strategies and improvement project of lagoons in Turkey coasts were used. In total, samples of 35 lagoons were studied, including 5 of Black Sea lagoons, 8 of Sea of Marmara lagoons, 15 of Aegean Sea lagoons, and 7 of Mediterranean Sea lagoons. As a result, 125 taxa were found, including 64 Rotifera, 24 Cladocera, and 32 Copepoda and 5 Ostracoda. Key words: Rotifera, Cladocera, Copepoda, Ostracoda, lagoons, Turkey Introduction A lagoon is a body of shallow sea water or brackish water separated from the sea by some form of barrier. The EU's habitat directive defines lagoons as "expanses of shallow coastal salt water, of varying salinity or water volume, wholly or partially separated from the sea by sand banks or shingle, or, less frequently, by rocks. Salinity may vary from brackish water to hyper salinity depending on rainfall, evaporation and through the addition of fresh seawater from storms, temporary flooding by the sea in winter or tidal exchange". Lagoons are also ecotones between freshwater, marine and terrestrial biotopes, which abiotic structure is therefore forced by coastal geomorphological processes, hydrological processes, natural vegetation and land use in the watershed. The lagoons cover more than 60,000 hectares in the coastal regions of Turkey. Approximately 50% and 35% of lagoonal areas are located in the Mediterranean and Aegean coasts of Turkey, respectively (Yerli, 1999). First studies on the zooplankton of Turkey’s lagoons (Miliç, Bafa, Güllük and Köyceğiz Lakes) were made by Demirhindi (1972). Lake Balık located on 208 Kızılırmak Delta, Lake Uzungöl, Lake Çernek and Lake Liman were the other lagoon lakes, where the zooplankton studies concentrated (Gündüz 1989, 1990, 1991a, 1991b; Emir 1990; Gündüz et al. 2005; Demirkalp et al. 2004, 2010; Bekleyen and Taş 2008). In recent years, Ustaoğlu and Balık (1990) studied on the zooplankton of Lake Gebekirse, Kazancı et al. (1992) studied on the limnology of Lake Köyceğiz, Özçalkap and Temel (2011) studied on the zooplankton of Lake Küçükçekmece, respectively. With this study, conducted in 35 lagoons of Turkey, we aim to provide the basis for further studies on the zooplankton. Materials and Methods The zooplankton samples of the project about the management and development strategies on Turkey’s Lagoons, collected in 1995 and 1996, were evaluated. In total, samples of 35 lagoons were studied, including 5 of Black Sea lagoons, 8 of Sea of Marmara lagoons, 15 of Aegean Sea lagoons, and 7 of Mediterranean Sea lagoons (Figure 1). A summary of some key features of sampled lagoons is presented in Table 1. Major environmental variables such as water temperature, dissolved oxygen, salinity, pH, were measured in situ . pH was measured with Oxyguard Model pH meter. Dissolved oxygen was measured with Oxyguard Mod. MKIII oxygen meter and salinity was measured with Atago S/Mill cat.2441 refractometer (Table 2). Collection of zooplankton materials were made by filtering of 50 l water with a plankton collector of 55 µm mesh. Samples were fixed and stored in 4% formalin solution. Several taxonomic books were used for species classification, such as Ruttner-Kolisko (1974), Stemberger (1979), Koste (1978), Segers (1995), Nogrady and Segers (2002) Flössner (1972), Smirnov (1974, 1992, 1996), Negrea (1983), Korovchinsky (1992), Benzie (2005), Kotov and Stifter (2006), Rylov (1963), Dussart (1967, 1969), Kiefer (1978), Einsle (1996), Henderson (1990) and Meisch (2000). 209 Figure 1.

The crabs were harvested in October 2010, January 2011 and March 2011. A total of fifty crabs was studied. A quantitative determination of residue levels was carried out through a Gas Chromatography-Electron Capture Detector (GC-ECD), and compared with acceptable contaminant levels. PCBs were the greatest source of contamination. The predominant compounds were α-HCH, o,p’-DDE, PCB 28 (2,2’,4,4’-PCB) and PCB 52 (2,2’,5,5’-PCB), with mean concentrations of 22.39, 59.45, 347.31 and 362.86 ng/g wet weights, respectively.

In this study, it was aimed to determine the female:male ratios and length-weight relationships of G. holbrooki populations in Turkey, which are considered as a threat, especially for endemic species. G. holbrooki specimen were sampled at total of 66 locations, including 39 lentic and 27 lotic locations, between 2016 and 2017. The female:male ratio was 1:0.39 for all of the investigated localities. Length–weight relationships were investigated at 44 sampling locations for the females and 34 sampling locations for the males. The sampled specimens ranged between 12.7 and 57.2 mm in total length, and 0.03 and 2.88 g in total weight. The length-weight relationship of the female and male G. holbrooki specimens indicated mostly isometric growth, whereas the b values varied between 1.755 and 4.009, and 2.154 and 3.665 for the females and males, respectively, in terms of the sampling locations.

    POPS LEVELS IN BLUE CRAB AND EDIBLE FISH FROM EASTERN MEDITERRANEAN COASTS Idil Pazi 1* and Serkan Tekin 2 1 Dokuz Eylul Univesity Institute of Marine science and Technology - [email protected] 2 Ege University, Centre For Drug Research and Development and Pharmacokinetic Applications Abstract The levels of organochlorinated pesticides (OCPs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were determined in fish and crab samples collected from the Eastern Mediterranean coasts. The concentrations of OCPs and PCBs ranged from 1.1-8.6 and 9-47.5 ng g-1 wet weight, respectively. Concentrations of ΣDDT and ΣPCB in sea food samples were lower than the tolerance level established by the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration). Keywords: Pesticides, Mediterranean Sea, Fishes Introduction OCPs and PCBs have been recognized as Priority Organic Pollutants (POPs) and they have adverse effects on humans and on ecosystems, according to the Stockholm Convention of 2009 [1]. The aquatic ecosystems have been contaminated by POPs. Biota, that provides relevant information on impacts of pollutants, defines ecological status of aquatic systems [2]. In this study levels of OCPs, PCBs were measured in different biota samples; blue crab, sea bream and gray mullet in Eastern coasts of Mediterranean in Turkey. POPs levels were compared with the recommended limits of POPs concentrations in sea food, suggested by different authorities. Material and Methods A total of 29 blue crabs, 30 thirty sea bream and 30 gray mullets were collected from Dalyan Lagoon, Fethiye, Beymelek Lagoon, Tasucu, Akyatan Lagoon and Goksu Delta in 2013 (Fig. 1). Biota samples were analysed according to (DFG Method S 19, 1999).

Çevresel değişkenlerin bentik faunanın dağılımı üzerindeki etkisini belirlemek amacıyla sıcaklık, tuzluluk, elektriksel iletkenlik, pH, çözünmüş oksijen, besin tuzları, klorofil-a, askıda katı madde miktarı ve sedimentin organik karbon içeriği ölçülmüştür. Mevsimsel tuzluluk değişimleri ile karakterize olan gölde, yaz döneminde yapılan tuzluluk ölçümleri 13,1-14,3 psu arasında değişmektedir. Makrobentik organizmaların toplam birey sayısı ile tuzluluk arasında ve organizmaların toplam biyokütlesi ile sıcaklık arasında pozitif yönde bir korelasyon bulunmuştur.
