Recent data on the fat content and abundance of sprat and anchovies are considered here along with data related to sea temperatures and phytoplankton biomass. Findings showed that signicant changes in fish conditions were strongly related to environmental factors.

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...
Seasonality of Mesozooplankton in the Southern Black Sea off Sinop Between 2002 and 2004
Üstün, Funda; Bat, Levent; Şahin, Fatih; Birinci Özdemir, Zekiye; Kıdeyş, Ahmet Erkan (2016-12-01)
The monthly and long-term fluctuations of mesozooplankton abundance, biomass, and taxonomic composition in the Sinop inner harbor (southern Black Sea) between 2005 and 2009 are presented in the present study. In total, 31 mesozooplankton taxa were identified during the study. The recorded average mesozooplankton abundance and biomass were 34,323 ± 7580 ind. m and 1208 ± 460 mg m in 2005, 95,063 ± 31,434 ind m and 1787 ± 604 mg m in 2006, 97,626 ± 12,141 ind m and 1034 ± 20 mg m in 2007, 91,918 ± 10,476 ind ...
Zooplankton of the Black Sea and the Eastern Mediterranean Similarities and dissimilarities
Kovalev, Av; Mazzocchı, Mg; Sıokoufrangou, I.; Kıdeyş, Ahmet Erkan (2001-01-01)
A synthesis of data on abundance and biomass of zooplankton in the Eastern Mediterranean (EMED) and the Black Sea shows major differences in the composition and structure of pelagic communities in the two basins. Few Mediterranean planktonic animals have invaded in the Black Sea. The great bulk of Black Sea species is represented by coastal inhabitants that spread throughout the whole basin. This process has been called “neritization” of the Black Sea fauna. Peculiarities in zooplankton assemblages of the B...
Current state of overfishing and its regional differences in the Black Sea
OGUZ, Temel; Akoğlu, Ekin; Salihoğlu, Barış (2012-03-01)
Long-term (1950-2006) changes of fish landings in combination with some ecosystem indicators are used to evaluate the status and sustainability of the Black Sea fishery. Following the depletion of large pelagic predator and demersal fish stocks during the 1950-1960s, the main fishery was targetted on small and medium pelagics that declined abruptly to similar to 200 kton (kton 10(3) t) at 1989-1991 after a highly productive (similar to 750 kton) but overfished state in the 1980s. Thereafter, total landings ...
Annual cycle of zooplankton abundance and species composition in Izmit Bay (the northeastern Marmara Sea)
Isinibilir, Melek; Kıdeyş, Ahmet Erkan; TARKAN, AHMET NURİ; Yılmaz, İsmail (2008-07-30)
The monthly abundance, biomass and taxonomic composition of zooplankton of Izmit Bay (the northeastern Marmara Sea) were studied from October 2001 to September 2002. Most species within the zooplankton community displayed a clear pattern of succession throughout the year. Generally copepods and cladocerans were the most abundant groups, while the contribution of meroplankton increased at inner-most stations and dominated the zooplankton. Both species number (S) and diversity (if) were positively influenced ...
