Description
Summary:Length-weight relationships of 15 fish species from Kizilirmak-Yesilirmak Shelf Area,Southeastern Black Sea were described. A total of 21.246 fish specimens were caught between2009-2014 using bottom and pelagic trawl nets. Parameters of b estimated for these species variedbetween 2.82 and 3.49, and r2 varied from 0.82 to 0.99. The lowest and the highest conditionfactors were estimated for Aphia minuta as 0.50±0.005 and Scophthalmus maximus as 1.68±0.014,respectively.
