Abstract
Marine mucilage creates significant pollution in seawater due to the high amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus discharges. The water quality of the Sea of Marmara has been damaged due to this environmental problem with the rising sea water temperature since 2020. This study aims to investigate the statistical differences in the impact of marine mucilage in the Sea of Marmara between 2020 and 2021, taking into account dissolved oxygen, pH, seawater, and ambient temperature. Ten sampling locations were established for this purpose on the Anatolian part of the Sea of Marmara. The statistical analysis revealed there is a statistically significant difference with a percent of 99 confidence levels at all sampling points. The variables pH and dissolved oxygen revealed a difference between 2020 and 2021, however, no statistically significant results were determined for the seawater temperature.
