Planktonic Diatom (Bacillariophyceae) Flora Of Sultan Sazlığı Marshes (Kayseri), Aydin Akbulut
Planktonic Diatom (Bacillariophyceae) Flora Of Sultan Sazlığı Marshes (Kayseri), Aydin Akbulut
Turkish Journal of Botany
This paper describes the planktonic diatom flora of the Sultan Sazlığı marshes, Kayseri. Samples were collected systematically from the marshes over a period of 1.5 years from three stations. The diatom flora of Sultan Sazlığı is rich in terms of species and varieties, which are similar to those from many parts of Turkey. A total of 75 taxa of diatoms were identified. The diversity of species at freshwater stations was higher, than that of the brackish water station. Genera such as Fragilaria Lyngb., Navicula, Gomphonema Ehrenb., Nitzschia Hassall, Epithemia Bréb. ex Kütz. were dominant in species numbers.
The Relationship Between Phytoplanktonic Organisms And Chlorophyll A In Sultan Sazlığı, Aydin Akbulut
The Relationship Between Phytoplanktonic Organisms And Chlorophyll A In Sultan Sazlığı, Aydin Akbulut
Turkish Journal of Botany
This study examines the variations and relationship between phytoplanktonic organisms and chlorophyll a in Sultan Sazlığı marshes. During the sampling period, the density of phytoplankton and the value of chlorophyll a were examined, and it was found that the correlation between them was high. Given the variations between these two parameters in accordance with the seasons, the relationships with other studies are also discussed.
