Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Gökçeada kıyılarında 22,4 – 24,8 m derinlikleri arasında bulunan TCSG-132 isimli gemi batığı üzerindeki ve çevresindeki denizel biyolojik çeşitliliğin belirlenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu kapsamda Ekim 2018 – Eylül 2019 tarihleri arasında sualtında türleri tanıyabilme yeteneğine sahip dalgıçlar düzenli olarak SCUBA takımları ile dalışlar gerçekleştirmiştir. Dalışlar süresince verilerin elde edilmesinde görsel sayım teknikleri (transekt, nokta sayım, kuadrat), fotoğraf çekimleri ve video kayıtları kullanılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda 19 familyaya ait 28 türden 12708 birey kaydedilmiştir. Bunların içinde 15 türün ekonomik öneme sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir. En çok gözlenen türlerin balıklardan kupes (Boops boops, %44,55), papaz (Chromis chromis, %26,44) ve izmarit (Spicara maena, %15,50) olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, TCSG-132 gemi batığının denizel türler için önemli bir yapay resif olarak hizmet ettiği ve canlılara yaşama, sığınma, yumurtlama, beslenme ve koruma imkanları sağladığı belirlenmiştir.

Biodiversity of TCSG-132 Shipwreck Artificial Reef (Gökçeada, North Aegean Sea)

Abstract

In this study, it was aimed to determine the species composition and marine biodiversity on and around the TCSG-132 shipwreck, which was located between 22.4 and 24.8 m depths in the coasts of Gökçeada Island. In this context, aquanauts regularly conducted SCUBA-equipped dives between October 2018 and September 2019. Visual counting techniques (transect and point-count (quadrat)), photo shoots and video recordings were used to obtain the data during the dives. As a result of the study, 12708 individuals from 28 different species belonging to 19 families were recorded. Among these, 15 species were determined to have economic importance. The most commonly observed species were bogue (Boops boops, 44.55%), damselfish (Chromis chromis, 26.44%) and blotched picarel (Spicara maena, 15.50%). In conclusion, TCSG-132 shipwreck has been found to serve as an important artificial reef for marine species and to provide living, sheltering, spawning, feeding and conservation opportunities for marine species.
