Length-Weight Relationships and Condition Factors of 15 Fish Species from KizilirmakYesilirmak Shelf Area, the Southeastern Black Sea

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 between 2009-2014 using bottom and pelagic trawl nets. Parameters of b estimated for these species varied between 2.82 and 3.49, a...

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 between 2009-2014 using bottom and pelagic trawl nets. Parameters of b estimated for these species varied between 2.82 and 3.49, and r 2 varied from 0.82 to 0.99. The lowest and the highest condition factors were estimated for Aphia minuta as 0.50±0.005 and Scophthalmus maximus as 1.68±0.014, respectively.
