“…It was thought that consuming 42.85 g smooth scallop daily will the amount recommended by FAO/WHO (2004) and USEPA (2019). Also, the Cu levels decrease when industrial and urban emissions, fertilizers, algaecides, fungicides, molluscicides, cyanobacteria in the region decrease (Moffett et al, 1997;Besada et al, 2002;Cheriyan et al, 2015). Cu is found in the greenish-blue pigment (hemocyanin) that carries oxygen of mollusks and crustaceans (Clark, 1992).…”

The present study investigated the total elemental composition (Fe, Cu, Mn, Zn, Al, S, B, Na, Mg, K, Ca, P, S) in smooth scallop (Flexopecten glaber) meat collected monthly in the Çardak Lagoon (Turkey) in 2017- 2018. Considering the distribution of elements in terms of quantity during the year, the elements were sorted as S> Na> K> P> Mg> Ca> Fe> Zn> Mn> Al> B> Cu> Se and the heavy metals were below the detection limit. Although the elements were at their highest values during autumn and summer, they were at their lowest values during spring and winter. The differences between the months in terms of Fe, Mn, Mg, and Ca elements were found to be statistically significant (p <0.05). It was determined that the element composition of smooth scallop meat was suitable for consumption in terms of the area where it is collected and is beneficial for health when consumed in the amounts recommended by FAO/WHO, and CODEX. The Hazard Quotient (THQ) and the Hazard Index (HI), which was conducted to evaluate the health risks of consuming smooth

“…Excessive Cu has a toxic effect on the body and can inhibit the functions of some enzymes (Bajgas, 2000). Cu levels decrease when industrial and urban emissions, fertilizers, algaecides, fungicides, molluscicides, and cyanobacteria in the region decrease (Moffett et al, 1997;Besada et al, 2002;Cheriyan et al, 2015).

This study aimed to determine into potential suitability of juvenile Mediterranean mussel (Mytilus galloprovincialis) for cultivation and human consumption collected from various stations (Kapaklı, Çınarcık, Koru, and Deveboynu) along the Yalova coast of the South Marmara Sea during the spring season. Specifically, meat yield, condition index, moisture content, density of fouling organisms on the shells, and heavy metal concentrations (copper, zinc, mercury, cadmium, lead, and arsenic) were analysed. The average meat yields for Çınarcık, Deveboynu, Kapaklı, and Koru were found to be 24.51±2.96, 21.72±3.92, 23.75±2.31, and 21.54±4.01, respectively. Similarly, the average condition index were found to be 7.29±1.16, 6.02±0.97, 7.30±0.77, and 5.94±1.39 for Çınarcık, Deveboynu, Kapaklı, and Koru, respectively. The average shell component index for Çınarcık, Deveboynu, Kapaklı, and Koru were detected that 72.06±2.75, 74.39±4.13, 69.99±2.55, and 74.68±4.54, respectively. Additionally, the average moisture contents were found to be 82.63±1.95, 83.34±3.23, 84.02±1.82, and 83.40±4.17 for Çınarcık, Deveboynu, Kapaklı, and Koru, respectively. The statistical analysis revealed significant differences (p<0.05) in these parameters among the stations. Moreover, the quantities of competitive and fouling organisms, such as polychaetes and barnacles, were found to be highest in the Deveboynu and Koru stations. It has been determined that copper, zinc, mercury, and lead levels of the mussels are suitable for human consumption in all stations. However, arsenic values exceeded legal limits in Çınarcık, Koru, and Deveboynu, and cadmium values exceeded legal limits in all stations.

“…Moreover, the surface layer of the Arabian Sea waters seems to be warmer (> 30 °C) 4 during the premonsoon season (April-May). The anthropogenic pressures along the coast is high, due to agriculture, industrial growth, excessive fishing, mariculture, terrestrial runoff and fresh water influx thus, increasing the nutrient budget of the coastal waters 5,6 . All these factors significantly alter the physical oceanography of the region which might influence positively or negatively the biogeochemical processes occurring in the ocean.…”

Present study formulates an empirical relation between sea surface temperature (SST) and chlorophyll (Chl) in the Southeastern Arabian Sea using data collected during 2017. SST was found to decrease due to upwelling of cold nutrient rich waters, thus causing enhancement of Chl in the coastal and nearshore waters. Based on this, an empirical relationship exists which is inversely correlated during peak upwelling and intense biological production. The linear regression generated a significant correlation coefficient (0.52 ≤ R2 ≥ 0.64) in the month of July, August and October. Although other factors influence Chl, SST can be considered as a significant indicator of biological production with respect to seasonal upwelling. Among the empirical relations, a definite single equation requires the assessment of subsurface Chl to reveal the underlying relationship.
