orcid:0000-0003-0096-6123 ; WOS: 000454767000005 ; The present study provided a two-years assessment to understand the seasonal fluctuations of aggregation of the Sandbar Shark, Carcharhinus plumbeus, in Boncuk Cove in the southern Aegean Sea. Underwater Visual Censuses (UVC) revealed that the species is present in the cove throughout the year but form aggregations only between March and November. Aggregation in groups was observed at a daily sea temperature above 18.1 degrees C and this indicated a possible lower threshold for aggregations for Boncuk Cove population. ; Mugla Sitki Kocman University Scientific Research Projects Coordination Office [BAP 2013/07, 2015/220] ; The present study compiled the data from two projects carried out with the financial support from Mugla Sitki Kocman University Scientific Research Projects Coordination Office, project numbers BAP 2013/07 and 2015/220. |
