Abstract

The composition and functional groups of phytoplankton in the channel from Kucukcekmece Lagoon to the Marmara Sea were investigated. Some water-quality parameters and nutrient variations were also recorded. Water samples were taken from the water surface between May-August 2008 at 5 sampling sites including the lake and the sea.
