Spatio-temporal distribution of soft-bottom epibenthic fauna on the Cilician shelf (Turkey), Mediterranean Sea.
Spatio-temporal distribution of epifauna collected with a sledge was studied on the Cilician shelf of the Mediterranean Sea. There were two different communities: the shallow community was restricted to water at 5 and 10 m deep with sandy bottom inhabited abundantly by Conomurex persicus, Arnoglossus laterna and Murex trunculus. Conomurex persicus, an introduced tropical species predominated th...
متن کاملBox Modeling of the Eastern Mediterranean Sea
Recently ( ) a new source of deep water formation in the Eastern Mediterranean was found in the southern part of the Aegean sea. Till then, the only source of deep water formation in the Eastern Mediterranean was in the Adriatic sea; the rate of the deep water formation of the new Aegean source is , three times larger than the Adriatic source. We develop a simple 3 box-model to study the stabil...
متن کاملPreliminary study on vertical distribution of microorganisms in the Bannock Basin waters (Eastern Mediterranean Sea)
Preliminary data are presented on microbial distribution in the Bannock Basin, a hypersaline and anoxic depression in the lower 3300 m of the water column. Epifluorescence microscopy was suitable for a first approach to enumeration of the microbial mass in water samples from this peculiar marine environment. Progressive increase in total microbial numbers occurs in the anoxic layer, with the hi...
متن کاملVariation in spatial distribution of juvenile loggerhead turtles in the eastern Atlantic and western Mediterranean Sea
Loggerhead sea turtles (Caretta caretta) originating from the Western Atlantic carry out one of the largest marine migrations, reaching the eastern Atlantic and Mediterranean Sea. It has been proposed that this transatlantic journey is simply a consequence of drifting, with the lack of a target destination and a passive dispersal with oceanic currents. This predicts that the size of the source ...
متن کاملDepth-specific distribution of Bacteroidetes in the oligotrophic Eastern Mediterranean Sea
Representatives of the phylum Bacteroidetes are repeatedly reported to be abundant members of oceanic bacterioplankton, probably because of their ability to degrade complex organic matter. 16S rDNA analysis was performed in order to address the importance of this phylum in a highly oligotrophic region such as the Eastern Mediterranean Sea and to investigate its distribution patterns and communi...
