dc.description.abstractThis study was conducted to investigate seafloor marine litter abundance between Samsun (Yakakent) and Hopa within the scope of Integrated Marine Pollution Monitoring Project (CSB/CEDIDGM-TUBITAK/MAM) in summer 2019. Totally, the trawl hauling operations were successfully performed in 30 stations. The works were done according to the MEDITS protocol: sampling was done at 3 different depths (0-20 m, 20-50 m and 50-100 m), marine litter was classified in 9 categories. At all sampling stations marine litter was assessed by weight and amount. The most common marine litter group was L2 tire/rubber by weight (53%) and amount (67%) when L1 plastic group - 25% by weight and L5 fabric and natural fibres - 12% by amount. Especially in the L2 group, the car and truck tires were dominated in weight of CB5 (Trabzon- Surmene) and CB3 (Trabzon) stations.
