TY - JOUR T1 - The Seasonally Determination of Disc Diameter-Weight Relationship of Moon Jellyfish Aurelia aurita in the Black Sea Coasts of Turkey TT - Türkiye’nin Karadeniz Kıyılarındaki Ay Denizanası (Aurelia aurita)’nın Çap-Ağırlık İlişkisinin Mevsimsel Olarak Belirlenmesi AU - Özdemir, Süleyman AU - Birinci Özdemir, Zekiye AU - Özsandıkçı, Uğur AU - Büyükdeveci, Ferhat AU - Baykal, Berna PY - 2019 DA - November Y2 - 2018 JF - Turkish Journal of Maritime and Marine Sciences JO - TRJMMS PB - Ordu University WT - DergiPark SN - 2564-7016 SP - 8 EP - 16 VL - 5 IS - 1 LA - en AB - In this study, seasonal disc diameter-weightrelationship of moon jellyfish (Aureliaaurita) were determined in the Black Sea coasts of Turkey. The samples ofjellyfish were collected monthly from Sinop coasts in the southern Black Seabetween December 2012 and November 2013 with plankton net. A total 1358 moonjellyfish were measurement in the study. Mean length and weight of allindividuals were established, 8.3±0.10 cm and 43.2±1.58 g respectively. Disc diameter-weightrelationship of moon jellyfish were calculated as Ww=0.1207L2.5887for general, Ww=0.1251L2.5567for autumn, Ww=0.0815L2.7181 for winter, Ww=0.1012L2.6813 for spring and Ww=0.1289L2.6844 forsummer. The results showed that “a” and “b” value of moon jellyfish variedwith seasons in the Black Sea coasts.

Denizanası örnekleri aylıkolarak Aralık 2012-Kasım 2013 tarihleri arasında Güney Karadeniz’in Sinopkıyılarından plankton ağı ile toplanmıştır. Çalışmada 1358 adet denizanasınınçap ve ağırlığı ölçülmüştür. Tüm denizanaları için ortama boy ve ağırlıkları8.3±0.10 cm ve 43.2±1.58 g olarak tespit edilmiştir. Denizanalarının çap-ağırlıkilişikleri tümü için Ww=0.1207L2.5887, sonbahar için Ww=0.1251L2.5567, kışiçin Ww=0.0815L2.718, ilkbahar için Ww=0.1012L2.6813 ve yaz için Ww=0.1289L2.6844 olarakhesaplanmıştır. Bu sonuçlar Karadeniz kıyılarındaki ay denizanasının “a” ve “b”değerlerinin mevsimsel olarak değiştiğini göstermiştir. CR - Möller, H., (1980).
