	abstract = {Model development is described, related to the restoration efforts of Vassova Lagoon, a small and shallow, fishery exploited coastal lagoon, located in the region of eastern Macedonia, N. Greece. This lagoon has been configured and is used for fisheries, by having dredged through tidal channels and installed fish entrapment devices. Decreases in fish production have been related to poor seawater circulation, limited water renewal and related water quality problems. The aim of this study is to evaluate the current situation of the lagoon and propose alternative management scenarios for improvement of water flow and lagoon ecosystem. The SWMM-EXTRAN mathematical model has been adapted, calibrated, verified, and applied to describe the current situation of the lagoon, and evaluate alternative scenarios for increasing tidal flushing and water residence time. Data necessary for model validation have been collected in the field. Among the tested restoration alternatives were the following: widening and/or deepening the lagoon inlet; constructing a second inlet; widening and/or deepening the tidal channels inside the lagoon. The combined influence of opening the existing communication channel of Vassova, Lagoon with the adjacent Eratino Lagoon was also considered for each scenario. The implications of the various scenarios on lagoon{\textquoteright}s fisheries management are discussed. The alternative of constructing a second tidal inlet channel, 5 m wide, and keeping the Eratino Lagoon channel open provided most tidal flushing and increased internal and inlet flow that favors recruitment of juvenile fish. This alternative was proposed for implementation. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.},

	abstract = {Growth rate and length-weight relationship of grey mullets (juveniles and adults) were studied in two Northeastern Greek wetlands from December 1988 to November 1990. The species studied were Chelon labrosus, Liza ramada, and Liza saliens. Back-calculated lengths-at-age showed no significant  differences between sexes, but females lived longer and predominated among older fish. L. ramada had a higher growth rate in the take; there was no difference for C. labrosus. The highest asymptotic length and weight were  found for L. ramada and the lowest for L. saliens. The growth rate in grey mullets recorded in this study was higher than that reported by previous investigators for the same species in the west Mediterranean and the Atlantic coasts of Europe but slightly lower than in the south Mediterranean area.},

	abstract = {The seasonal occurrence, relative abundance and recruitment rate of mullet fry in a coastal lagoon of Northern Greece has been studied. Samples were taken monthly from April 1989 to August 1990 using a bag-seine net. The  following species of mullet were found: the common gray mullet (Mugil cephalus), the thick-lipped mullet (Chelon labrosus), the thin-lipped mullet (Liza ramada), the golden mullet (Liza aurata) and the leaping mullet (Liza  saliens). The size distribution of each species was examined. Each species makes its first appearance in the ecosystem during different months of the year although there are periods during which the simultaneous presence of  some species is observed. L. aurata occurred first (beginning of the year), followed by L. ramada and later on in May by C. labrosus. L. saliens occurred in July and finally M. cephalus in October. The highest abundance and  recruitment rate was observed for C. labrosus. In addition the spawning period of each species was determined by taking into account the first  appearance of the fry.},
