Effects of Total Suspended Solids at Different Levels on the Eggs and Larvae of Endemic Fish, Tarek (Alburnus tarichi Güldenstädt, 1814) in the Karasu River (Van, Turkey)
Abstract:The Karasu River (Van, Turkey) is one of the most important sources of intensive reproduction for Tarek (Alburnus tarichi Güldenstädt, 1814) in the Van Lake basin. However, sand pits and sand extraction activities in the Karasu River threaten the spawning areas of A. tarichi. This study aimed to investigate how increased sediment concentration in the Karasu River affects the eggs and larvae of A. tarichi during the reproductive period. The study in the laboratory was designed by measuring total suspended solid… Show more
