The Bosphorus strait is an outstanding example of the sea straits with its spatial and temporal change of current pattern. The Bosphorus Strait is a strongly stratified two-layer system and a unique case of the maximal exchange regime of strait flows, which largely determines the properties of the Black Sea. In this study, the latest investigations will be compiled with the old ones and also the effect of an underwater construction in the Bosphorus will be discussed. Hence the impacts of an underwater construction on the Marine Environment will be also evaluated with the Ecological Study.

Basement structure and architecture of the Black Sea Basin Kaymakcı, Nuretdin; Horn, Brian (null; 2018-01-28) Black Sea consists of two separate back arc basins which opened at different times during the Cretaceous in response to northward subduction of the Neo-Tethys Ocean. The paucity of well data, complex geometries and seismic imaging challenges mean that questions remain regarding the basement architecture though most authors accept that, at least in part, both these basins are floored by oceanic crust, even though there are no magnetic stripes. Interpretation of deep, long offset seismic data (imaging to more...
Seasonal Changes in the Composition and Abundance ofZooplankton in the Seas of the Mediterranean Basin Kovalev, Av; Mazzocchı, Mg; Toklu Alıçlı, Benin; Skryabın, Va; Kıdeyş, Ahmet Erkan (2003-01-01) Seasonal changes in the composition, abundance and biomass of zooplankton in the seas of the Mediterranean basin (the Mediterranean, Black and Azov seas) have been reviewed using our own data and data from the literature. In the deep-water central regions of the seas, the seasonal cycle of zooplankton abundance is characterised by one maximum occurring in spring or summer. In the coastal regions, two to three peaks (spring, summer and autumn) exist for the zooplankton abundance. The amplitude of seasonal fl...
Vertical distribution of marine cyanobacteria Synechococcus spp. in the Black, Marmara, Aegean, and eastern Mediterranean seas Uysal, Zahit (2006-01-01) The vertical distributions of the unicellular cyanobacteria Synechococcus were studied in several highly contrasting seas: the Black Sea, Sea of Marmara, Aegean Sea, and Mediterranean Sea. Cell abundances varied significantly on both vertical and horizontal scales in all physically and spatially discrete water masses. Epifluorescence microscope cell counts from all seas clearly showed that majority of the population remains suspended in the surface-mixed layer and decreases gradually towards the base of the...
Elemental composition of seston and nutrient dynamics in the Sea of Marmara POLAT, ÇOLPAN; Tuğrul, Süleyman; ÇOBAN, YEŞİM; SALİHOĞLU, İLKAY (1997-01-01) The Sea of Marmara, an intercontinental basin with shallow and narrow straits, connects the Black and Mediterranean Seas. Data obtained during 1991-1996 have permitted the determination of the elemental composition of seston in the euphotic zone and the N:P ratio of the subhalocline waters of the Marmara Sea. Since primary production is always limited to the less saline upper layer (15-20 m), of the Marmara Sea, the subhalocline waters of Mediteranean origin are always rich in nutrients (NO3 + NO2 = 8-10 mu...
What is the Impact of Lessepsian Species on Eastern Mediterranean Fisheries? Lefkaditou, Evgenia; Abdelaty, Mohamed; Bariche, Michel; Corsini-Foka, Mariolina; Dimech, Mark; Economidis, Panagiotis; Gücü, Ali Cemal; Kalogirou, Stefanos; Konnaris, Kostas; Lahouf, Imad; Madi, Abdalnaser; Majdalani, Samir; Mahmoud, Hatem Hanafy; Michailidis, Nikolas; El Mokdad, Dahej; Nader, Manal; Qamheyih, Mohamed; Orsi-Relini, Lidia; Pagiatas, Giorgos; et.al. (2011-10-29) The migration of Lessepsian species, which was the result of the opening of the Suez Canal in 1869 and further facilitated by human activities and environmental conditions, seems to play a key role for fisheries particularly in the Levant basin. However, there is still lack of accurate data for most of the Lessepsian species in order to evaluate their positive or negative effect to the fisheries catches and local fish stocks.
