Abstract

The effects of a fish farm on the benthic fauna near Markiz Island (Çandarlı Bay-Aegean Sea/Turkey) The effects of a fish farm on the benthic fauna which located in the northern part of Markiz Island, Çandarlı Bay were investigated in this study. In order to determine the qualitative and the quantitative aspects of the zoobenthic organisms of the area cited above, samplings were performed by means of a dredge at one station (Station 2, 50 m depth) having coralligenous and two stations (Station 1, 50 m depth; Station 3, 35 m depth) having sandy mud bottom structure. As a result of evaluating the samples, 236 species and 964 individuals belonging to 9 systematic groups were encountered. Among these, Polychaeta were represented with the maximum number of species and individuals, while Porifera, Nemertini, Platyhelminthes, Sipuncula and Acrania were represented with the minimum number (8 species and 16 individuals in total) of species and individuals. As a result of the study, high level of biological richness was observed in the area and no discernible negative effect of the fish farm was determined in sampling sites

Özet

Bu çalışmada, Çandarlı Körfezi'nde, Markiz Adası'nın kuzeyinde yer alan balık çiftliğinin bentik fauna üzerindeki etkileri araştırılmıştır. Bu amaçla, adı geçen bölgedeki mevcut zoobentik canlıların saptanması ve bu canlıların kalitatif ve kantitatif durumlarının ortaya konulması için, 15 Mart 2003 tarihinde, korallijenli dip yapısına sahip 1 (İstasyon 2, 50 m.) ve kumlu çamur dip yapısına sahip 2 istasyondan (İstasyon 1, 50 m; İstasyon 3, 35 m), drej kullanılarak örneklemeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Yapılan incelemeler sonucunda 9 sistematik gruba ait toplam 236 tür ve 964 birey tespit edilmiştir. Bu sistematik gruplar içerisinde en fazla tür ve birey Polychaeta grubuna (130 tür; 642 birey) ait olup Porifera, Nemertini, Platyhelminthes, Sipuncula ve Acrania ise en az tür ve bireyle temsil edilen gruplar olarak kaydedilmiştir (toplam 8 tür ve 16 birey). Bu çalışma sonucunda, ortamın yüksek derecede biyolojik zenginliğe sahip olduğu, mevcut balık çiftliğinin bulunduğu bölgede belirgin bir olumsuz etki oluşturmadığı saptanmıştır
