The Abundant and wide-spread Species of algae in the algal flora of the Lower Euphrates Basin wetlands

Güneydoğu Anadolu Bölgesi, Aşağı Fırat Havzası algleri Ekim 2001 ve Ağustos 2003 tarihleri arasında belirlenen 21 istasyonda farklı habitatlardan (plankton, epipelon, epifiton, epiliton) alınan örnekler üzerinde araştırılmıştır. Yoğunluk değerlerine göre Cyanobacteria, Bacillariophyta, Chlorophycophyta sıralaması göze çarpmaktadır. Microcystis aeruginosa Eylül 2002’de Atatürk Barajı ve Halfeti Barajı planktonunda aşırı çoğalmıştır. Cyclotella ocellata Eylül 2002, Cyclostephanos dubius Mayıs 2003’te, Ceratium hirundinella ise Ağustos 2003’te aşırı çoğalma derecesine yakın yoğunlukta olduğu söylenebilir. Yoğunluk gösteren diyatomeler daha çok planktonda tespit edilmiştir. Limnothrix, Lyngbya, Oscillatoria, Phormidium, Pseudoanabaena ve Spirogyra türleri diğerlerine göre daha yaygın olmuşlardır. Limnothrix, Phormidium, Pseudoanabaena, Oscillatoria türleri ile Leiblenia epiphytica ve Phormidium mucicola gibi türlerin bolluk dereceleri akarsularda Eylül ve Şubat aylarında artmıştır. Bu aylarda bölgede su sıcaklığı yaklaşık 18-22°C ölçülmüştür. Kimyasal ve biyolojik verilere bağlı olarak havzanın geneli mezotrofik iken, kanalizasyon girdilerinin olduğu bazı çayların ötrofik karakterli olduğu gözlenmiştir.

Aşağı Fırat Havzası sulak alanlarının alg florasındaki bol ve yaygın türler

The research on the algae of the Lower Euphrates Basin of the South East Anatolian Region was done between November 2001 and August 2003 at twenty one stations each, on four different habitats (plankton, epipelon, epifithon, epilithon). Due to the density level of species, Cyanobacteria, Bacillariophyta and Chlorophycophyta were conspicous. A bloom of Microcystis aeruginosa was observed in Atatürk and Halfeti Reservoirs in September 2002. In the same period, Cyclotella ocellata, in May 2003 Cyclostephanos dubius, and in August the same year. It could be said that Ceratium hirundinella species were close to bloom level. High density diatoms were found more in plankton. Species such as Oscillatoria spp., Spirogyra spp. and Lyngbya spp. were observed to be more wide-spread than the others. Species such as Oscillatoria spp., Leiblenia epiphytica and Phormidium mucicola increased in abundance in February and September in running waters. Within these months, water temperature in the region ranged between 18-22°C. According to some chemical and biological data, the basin was mesotrophic while some streams with sewage inputs, were observed to have eutrophic characteristics.
