Özet
In this study, carried out at monthly intervals in four different stations between March 2004 and January 2005, it is aimed to have new knowledge on the dynamics of zooplankton communities and the effects of physical-chemical values of the Lake Gala. As a result of the study, a total of 76 species have been identified as 50 species belong to Rotifera, 15 species - to Cladocera, and 11 species - to Copepoda. Of these species Proalides tentaculatus de Beuchamp, 1907, Itura myersi WULFERT, 1935, Asplanchnopus hyalinus (HARRING, 1913) are found only in Turkish Thrace. As a result of quantitative evaluation of zooplankton samples, while an average of 35 334 ind./m(3) Rotifera, 19 305 ind./m(3) Cladocera, 72 369 ind./m(3) Copepoda was found an average of 127 008 ind./m(3) zooplankton organisms have been determined in the lake. According to the results of PCA analysis, when looking at the seasonal distribution of zooplankton species, it is seen that species assembled to form three groups as species which appear in spring, summer and winter. According to the results of RDA analysis, correlation (for RDA axis 1 0.956, for RDA axis 2 0.925) between zooplankton organisms and environmental variables being so high shows that Water tem, EC, SO4, Ca, pH, Chl-a, Secchi and PO4, are significant (p = 0.0020) factors determining the distribution of zooplankton organisms in the Lake Gala.
