The concentration of heavy metals (Zn, Cy Ni, Cr, Cd, and Hg) in sea water was determined along the Turkish Straits (Dardanelles and Bosphorus) and in the Marmara Sea. The concentrations are ranging between 13.26-144.9 mu g/L for Zn, 0.23-0.77 mu g/L for Cu, 0.41-5.42 mu g/L for Ni, 0.26-2.56 mu g/L for Cr, 0.67-12.67 ng/L for Cd and 2.0-5.3 ng/L for Hg.

YILMAZ, A; SAYDAM, AC; BASTURK, O; SALIHOGLU, I (Informa UK Limited, 1991-01-01)
The distribution and transportation of Dissolved/Dispersed Petroleum Hydrocarbons (DDPH) were investigated in the Northern Levantine together with the physical dynamics of the region. It was clearly observed that the characteristic meso‐scale eddies formed in the area strongly affect the distribution of this pollutant. A recent example of cruises which was performed in March 1989, covered relatively large scale are in the Eastern Mediterranean and the chemistry studies coupled with the physical data for thi...
Nutrient Exchange Fluxes between Aegean and Black Seas through The Marmara Sea
Tuğrul, Süleyman; Beşiktepe, Şükrü Turan; Salihoğlu, İlkay (2002-01-01)
Long-term data obtained in the Turkish Strait System (TSS) including the Sea of Marmara, the Dardanelles and Bosphorus straits, during 1990-2000, have permitted us to calculate seasonal and annual fluxes of water and nutrients (nitrate, phosphate) exchanged between the Aegean and Black Seas through the TSS. Two-layer flow regimes in the TSS introduce the brackish waters of the Black Sea into the Aegean basin of the northeastern Mediterranean throughout the year. A counter flow in the TSS carries the salty M...
Atmospheric deposition of inorganic phosphorus in the Levantine Basin, eastern Mediterranean: Spatial and temporal variability and its role in seawater productivity
Markaki, Z; Oikonomou, K; Koçak, Mustafa; Kouvarakis, G; Chaniotaki, A; Kubilay, N; Mihalopoulos, N (2003-07-01)
Total and dissolved inorganic phosphorus (IP) was measured in both rainwater and aerosol samples collected from two remote coastal areas: on the island of Crete (Greece) and at Erdemli (Turkey). Particle size distributions of P, as well as total deposition were also measured. Wet and dry deposition of dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP) from Crete are compared with simultaneously obtained dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) and with productivity data from the literature. Our results indicate that (1) in bot...
HEAVY-METAL CONCENTRATIONS IN SURFACE SEDIMENTS FROM THE 2 COASTAL INLETS (GOLDEN HORN ESTUARY AND IZMIT BAY) OF THE NORTHEASTERN SEA OF MARMARA
ERGIN, M; SAYDAM, C; BASTURK, O; ERDEM, E; YORUK, R (1991-09-05)
A total of 57 surficial sediment samples collected in the Golden Horn Estuary and Izmit Bay (northeastern Marmara Sea) was analyzed for the heavy metals Fe, Mn, Cr, Ni, Co, Zn, Pb, and Cu and the results were compared with various natural and anthropogenic sources.
Particulate and dissolved primary production along a pronounced hydrographic and trophic gradient (Turkish Straits System-NE Aegean Sea)
Lagaria, A.; Psarra, S.; Gogou, A.; Tuğrul, Selen; Christaki, U. (Elsevier BV, 2013-06-01)
The rates of particulate (PPp) and dissolved primary production (PPd) were estimated along a trajectory of variable environmental regimes formed in a narrow shelf area, following the course of Black Sea water masses (BSW) passing through the Turkish Straits System (TSS) into the NE Aegean Sea (BS-AS outflow). Seven stations in total were sampled, covering a transect from the eastern edge of the Marmara Sea basin to the NE Aegean Sea, during two consecutive cruises performed in October 2008 within the framew...
