Özet

Artificial reef deployment in Turkish waters and results from monitoring studies are described. The first known project with 10 old trolley-bus bodies was in 1989, and presently there are six ongoing projects in which reinforced concrete modules of five different designs are being used. The main aims are: (1) to protect fish-spawning and nursery areas from illegal trawling; (2) to create new sites for recreational fishing and diving; (3) to protect small-scale artisanal fisheries from damage caused by illegal trawling; and (4) to conduct scientific experiments. Most projects are supported by local municipalities and fishery cooperations. Following a meeting of the experts and foundations involved, a "Project Guide for Artificial Reef Applications" has been produced recently which formulates the requirements that must be met by all new artificial reef projects along Turkish coasts.
