Özet
Bluefin tuna farming in the Mediterranean has been expanding since the mid-1990s. Expansion of tuna farming has been accompanied by widespread concerns about its impacts on the marine environment. The aim of the present study was to investigate impacts of a capture-based tuna farm located in the Gerence Bay on the water column and sediment.
