Tasks of Fishery Management: Working fields to estimate economical species in inland waters and seas (Black sea and Marmara sea),To determine bio-ecological features of important species,To determine food dynamics and relationship between prey-predator in species, To investigate destructive effects and reduction methods of fishery gear,To survey HES and HES liked constructions which are built on offshore structures and fluvial deposits, To mark fish and determine migration routes and migration areas by this method. In addition, researches are conducted on subjects that require information by the ministry. Since the establishment of the Institute, national (Tagem, Tübitak, Bap, Development agency, Ministry of Development, Public Private Sector Cooperation), International and EU projects have been carried out in our department.

Resulted EU projects;
