“…Several authors found that Zn is easily accumulated by ulva compared with coralline [5] [7]. In this study, it is noted to the contrary, where a preferential accumulation of Zn Corallina officinalis relative to Ulva lactuca, which is in agreement with the results reported by [6] [27].…”

Concentrations of Fe, Cu, Pb, Zn, Cd and Ni were determined in the red alga Corallina officinalis (Linnaeus, 1758), the green alga Ulva lactuca (Linnaeus, 1753) and sediment sampled in four stations of the coastline of Honaïne (extreme Western Algeria). The abundance of metal concentrations in algae and sediment samples, is in the following order: Fe > Zn > Pb > Ni > Cu > Cd. The schematic representation by PCA reflects a strong correlation of the corallina with Cd and Pb, the ulva with Zn and Ni and sediment with Cu and Fe, in addition, to homogeneity of rehearsals in each matrix. The results of this study validate the use of these species as reliable tools for biomonitoring of metal pollution of coastal ecosystems, even if the levels of heavy metals in sediment and algae from the coastline of Honaïne are in general, very low compared with those from other geographic areas and by guidelines.

Heavy metal accumulation (Cu, Zn, Ni, and Pb) in common marine macroalga, Acrosorium uncinatum under nutrient (phosphate and nitrate) enriched (experiment 1) and starved (experiment 2) conditions over a short exposure period (12 h) were examined in this study. Control was maintained in seawater contained nutrient solution without addition of metals and in seawater alone for experiment 1 and 2, respectively. Among the four metals studied, the accumulation of Zn, Ni, and Pb was considerably lower than Cu. The accumulation factor for all metals varies greatly in different nutrient concentrations, but it increases as the exposure of metal concentration decreases in both the experiments. The results of the present findings established that this macroalga is an accumulator of metals Cu, Zn, Ni, and Pb and have the potential to accumulate these metals even in a short time exposure period (12 h). Even though metal accumulation by A. uncinatum largely depends on the available concentration in the medium, nutrients like phosphate and nitrate can affect the accumulation significantly.

Today, mucilage, or as it is known by the people, sea saliva, which directly affects the natural life and trade opportunities of the Marmara Sea, has more and more serious consequences day by day. The rapid detection of the spreading areas of the mucilage is of great importance for the cleaning works to be carried out. Remote sensing satellites have the great advantage of detecting the mucilage layer on the sea surface and studying its propagation. It has an important place in monitoring the change in that region over time and associating it with other ecological analysis, especially thanks to the ability to take images from the same region with frequent repetitions. Within the scope of this study, the mucilage distribution areas on the sea surface in the Dardanelles Strait, Gemlik Bay and Izmit Bay were investigated temporally and the concentration of chlorophyll-a, which is the main component organic matter of phytoplankton, and it is also the main cause of mucilage in the sea, was investigated and associated with mucilage areas. The satellite images used in the study were obtained from the Sentinel-2 multispectral optical satellite and the areas were determined by interpreting the images before and after mucilage propagation. Normalized Water Index (NDWI), a band index, was used to determine the mucilage area. As a result of the analysis, the mucilage rates in the sea were determined from the images on the dates used in the study. These rates were found as approximately 2.03% in the Dardanelles Strait, approximately 6.80% and 3.52% in the Gulf of Gemlik, where satellite images were examined at 10-day intervals, and approximately 7.44% in the Gulf of Izmit. When we look at the increase in the chlorophyll-a concentration in the sea for the same regions and dates, it is detected as about 0.84% in the Dardanelles Strait, 272.64% and 84.06% in the Gulf of Gemlik, and 8.22% in the Gulf of Izmit. When we look at the results, it is understood that the chlorophyll-a concentration and the spread of the mucilage layer are related to each other. In the light of these results, it is expected that using remote sensing techniques can be easily used for detecting mucilage, which is formed on the sea surface and spreads over large areas, and be a preliminary analysis study for rapid interventions.
