Abstract

Three beaches on the Eastern Black Sea coast of Türkiye, with different usage purposes and urbanization, were evaluated regarding marine litter densities and categories in four seasons. 3573 marine litter items were collected, classified, and recorded. In an area of 3,000 m², the highest amount of litter was counted in summer with a total of 1473 pieces of litter (Average: 0.491 ± 0.131 items/m²), and the lowest was counted in the spring months with 577 pieces of litter (Average: 0.192 ± 0.026 items/m²). Plastics (79 ± 0.9%) were the most predominant, and litter items mainly consisted of metal (7.2 ± 0.5%) and paper/cardboard (5.6 ± 0.6%.). Beach litter was also associated with fishing activities and tourism. It was observed that litter relatively increased during the fishing season in the region where fishing activities were intense. SIMPER analysis revealed that Çamburnu, located near a fishing port, exhibited a significantly different litter composition, with fishing gear being the most dominant category.

不同利用目的和城市化对沿海海洋垃圾污染的影响。

对t rkiye黑海东部沿岸3个不同利用目的和城市化程度的海滩进行了四季海洋垃圾密度和种类的评价。收集、分类和记录了3573件海洋垃圾。在3000 m2范围内，夏季凋落物数最多，为1473件（平均0.491±0.131件/m2），春季凋落物数最少，为577件（平均0.192±0.026件/m2）。以塑料（79±0.9%）居多，金属（7.2±0.5%）和纸/纸板（5.6±0.6%）居多。海滩垃圾还与捕鱼活动和旅游业有关。在捕捞活动密集的区域，枯枝落叶在捕捞季节相对增加。SIMPER分析显示，位于渔港附近的Çamburnu凋落物组成差异显著，以渔具为主。
