Abstract

In the present study, the distribution of macroinvertebrates among 44 sites in the Ceyhan River Basin and the determination of the ecological status of these sites using the macroinvertebrate multimetric index were investigated. Samples were taken between April 2021 and August 2022, covering the spring, summer, and autumn seasons. A total of 14,839 individuals belonging to 166 taxa were collected. According to the Shannon Diversity Index values, the highest and lowest values were calculated at site 27 (2.45) and 22 (0.22) in spring, site 39 (2.24) and 8 (0.1) in summer, and site 17 (2.28) and 8 (0.17) in autumn, respectively. The highest Shannon all-sample index value was found in the spring season (3.00). Analysis of similarity results (ANOSIM) showed that there were low but significant differences between the spring–summer (p = 0.001; R = 0.236) and spring–autumn (p = 0.001; R = 0.232) seasons in terms of species compositions. The first two axes of the canonical correspondence analysis elucidated 51.4% of the relationships between species and environmental variables, along with the significant effects of altitude, temperature, and pH on the distribution of macroinvertebrates. The ecological quality ratios of the sites were calculated with the Ceyhan Basin Multimetric Index (MMI-C). The ecological status of sites was evaluated over three seasons and divided into the following categories: 19 good, 16 moderate, 3 poor, and 4 bad. The results suggest that sites in residential areas have mostly bad ecological conditions, whereas the ecological status of sites situated farther away from residential areas, at high-altitude sites, tends to improve.

杰伊汉河流域(土耳其)大型无脊椎动物的分布及多指标环境质量的测定
本研究调查了杰伊汉河流域 44 个地点的大型无脊椎动物分布情况,并利用大型无脊椎动物多指标指数确定了这些地点的生态状况。样本采集时间为 2021 年 4 月至 2022 年 8 月,涵盖春、夏、秋三个季节。共采集了 166 个类群的 14839 个个体。根据香农多样性指数值计算,最高值和最低值分别出现在春季的 27 个样本点(2.45)和 22 个样本点(0.22),夏季的 39 个样本点(2.24)和 8 个样本点(0.1),以及秋季的 17 个样本点(2.28)和 8 个样本点(0.17)。春季的香农全样本指数值最高(3.00)。相似性分析(ANOSIM)结果表明,春夏季(p = 0.001;R = 0.236)和春秋季(p = 0.001;R = 0.232)的物种组成差异较小但很显著。典型对应分析的前两个轴阐明了 51.4%的物种与环境变量之间的关系,海拔、温度和 pH 值对大型无脊椎动物的分布也有显著影响。采用杰伊汉盆地多指标指数(MMI-C)计算了各观测点的生态质量比率。在三个季节中对各观测点的生态状况进行了评估,并将其分为以下几类:19 个良好、16 个中等、3 个较差:良好 19 个,中等 16 个,较差 3 个,差 4 个。结果表明,位于居民区的地点的生态条件大多较差,而位于远离居民区的高海拔地点的生态条件则趋于改善。
