Winter Sampling is in Progress
We continue our sampling within the scope of the project in the Çoruh River as the snow melts after a challenging winter season. Yesterday (March 19, 2025), we carried on with our fieldwork for sampling in the region. Every month, we strive to ensure data flow in our study areas over 5-6 day periods. Sometimes we face difficulties, but in the end, the scientific satisfaction makes all our fatigue disappear.
