Abstract
The study was carried out monthly between April 2000 and December 2001 on the seagrass and/or sandy bottom in shallow waters of Erdek Bay (Sea of Marmara, Turkey). Samples were collected using 35 m long beach seine. Fish samples were identified, measured and weighed. The length-weight relationships of juvenile and adult specimens of 36 fish species were investigated. The parameters a and b were calculated by functional regression, as was the coefficient of determination ( r 2 ). r 2 values were higher than 0.950 for 27 species in the list, while only one species was lower than 0.80. The exponent b ranged from 2.282 to 3.741.
