In the present study, the lake restoration applications carried out on the Tuzla Kamil Abdus Lake, which had completely dried up in 2001 as a result of wrong planning, yet later which has been reintroduced to aquatic ecosystem in consequence of the said rehabilitation works , the pytoplankton composition of the lake, the species available in it and environmental effects were evaluated
