CETACEAN BYCATCHES IN TURBOT FISHERY ON THE WESTERN COAST OF THE TURKISH BLACK SEA
In April- June, 2002 and 2003, the cetacean bycatch was studied in the bottom gillnet fishery for turbot on the western coast of the Turkish Black Sea. The aim of the study was to gather information about the amount of the cetacean bycatch so that the conservation of the cetacean species in the Blac...
