Abstract

The
physicochemical features and species
composition and density of zooplankton of Köprüçay estuary inves­tigated monthly sampling from selected 5 stations be­tween January and
December, 2009. In this study, Zo­oplankton which are
Rotifera (20), Cladocera (6), Co­pepoda (34), and
Cnidaria, Tubilariidae,
Foraminifera, Tintinida, Cirripedia, Gastropoda, Polychaeta, Chae­tognatha,
Decapoda, Ichthyoplankton one of each of
determined 70
taxons in Köprüçay River estuarin zone. The dominant taxa in
Köprüçay River estuarin zone consist
of
Oithona nana, Clausocalanus arcui­cornis, Acartia
discaudata, Paracalanus parvus, Eu­chlanis
dilatata and Cephalodella gibba
and these species are
eurohalin
character types
of
zooplankton.
In Köprüçay River estuarin zone, the
highest and the lowest Copepoda density semptember (25627.33
±8369 ind./m3) and february (3050 ±1701
ind./m3), ; the highest and the lowest Rotifera density
january (12152 ±6835 ind./m3)  and september (187 ±76
ind./m3); the highest and the lowest Cladocera density august
(2687 ±604 ind./m3) and february (0 ±0 ind./m3); the highest and the lowest
other organisms february (3226,33
±586 ind./m3) and may (648 ±178 ind./m3),
respectively.
This article was prepared from
the doctoral thesis.
