POPULATION PARAMETERS, MORALITY AND EXPLOITATION RATES OF EUROPEAN HAKE, Merluccius merluccius (LINNAEUS, 1758) IN ISKENDERUN BAY (OFF KARATAS COASTS, ADANA)

Abstract

This study was carried out from September 2002 to April 2003 in Karataş Coasts (Iskenderun Bay). A total of 212 specimens were trawled by monthly sampling in 2002-2003 fishing season. The age of Merluccius merluccius varied from I to IV age classes. The mean total length and total weight values was calculated as 12.872.67 cm and 22.9312.86 g respectively and the calculated length-weight relationship was W=0.0267L2.5309. The von Bertalanffy growth parameters were L= 42.61 cm, K= 0.123 year-1 and to= -1.906 year. Total mortality was 2.41, the
natural mortality was 0.29 and the fishing mortality was estimated to be 2.12. The exploitation rate calculated as 0.88 using value of M and F. Therefore, the population of M. merluccius off the Karatas coast exploited over the optimum level because of overfishing pressure.

Abstract

Bu
çalışma, Eylül 2002-Nisan 2003 tarihleri arasında, Karataş Kıyıları’nda
(İskenderun Körfezi) aylık trol çekimleri yapılarak gerçekleştirilmiştir. Elde
edilen 210 bireyin I-V yaş grupları arasında değişim gösterdiği belirlenmiştir.
Örneklenen bireylerin boyları 6.10-17.80 cm ve ağırlık değerleri 2.14-59.65 g
arasında değişim göstermekte olup; ortalama boy ve ağırlık değerleri ise sırasıyla
8.95±2.80 cm ve 10.02±11.28 g olarak hesaplanmıştır. Spicara smaris için boy-ağırlık ilişkisi W=0.0066*L^3.1879 ve von
Bertalanffy boyca büyüme sabitleri L_¥=22.76 cm, K=0.213 yıl^-1
ve t_o=-0.805 yıl olarak hesaplanmıştır. Ayrıca toplam ölüm
oranlarının üssi katsayısı Z= 1.68, doğal nedenlerle olan ölüm oranı M=0.49 ve
balıkçılık nedeniyle olan ölüm oranının üssi katsayısı ise F=1.19 ve stoktan
yararlanma düzeyi E=0.71 olarak hesaplanmıştır.
