Mutlu, Ekrem; Kutlu, Banu; Demir, Tugba; Yanik, Telat
Aim of the study: The objectives of this study are to observe the monthly and annual changes in water samples using physical-chemical methods in order to determine the water quality properties, to reveal pollution problems, to determine the suitability of water quality for aquatic life and to classify the quality of water in accordance with the Surface Water Quality Management Regulation's Inland Surface Water Classes criteria. Area of the study: Lake Tecer is located in the southeastern area of Sivas city and at the end of Brook Tecer, a branch of the Kizilirmak. The lake has a mean depth of 2.4 m and is fed by surface waters and snowmelt. Material and methods: The study period was from March 2011 to February 2012. Samples analysed for several chemical and physical parameters representing water quality were collected monthly over a period of 12 months. Main results: It was observed that the condition of the lake in terms of water quality is good. According to the Classification of the Intra-Continental Water Resources in the WPCR, the lake shows Class I, II and III water quality characteristics. Research highlights: In order to protect the water quality of this water source, to reduce further pollution and to sustain the natural ecological balance consisting of natural fish stocks and other aquatic animals, this lake should be monitored continuously.

İncele - MakaleAçık Erişim2017Determining The Water Quality of Maruf Dam (Boyabat-Sinop)
Mutlu, Ekrem; Kutlu, Banu
In this study, the preliminary findings obtained from 3 sampling points, which represent the whole, on Maruf Irrigation Dam, which is located in Boyabat district of Sinop province, for 12 months between September 2015 and August 2016 were examined. The parameters monitored are temperature, dissolved oxygen, pH, electrical conductivity, total hardness, total alkalinity, chemical oxygen demand, biological oxygen demand, and dissolved anions and cations (sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, ammonium, nitrate, phosphate, chloride, sulfate, and sulfite). Because of its low dissolved ionic matter content, Maruf Dam was characterized as an alkali dam with mid-hard water and low electrical conductivity. In terms of parameters A and B of Surface Water Quality Management Regulation, the dam is considered high-quality and unpolluted. Besides the irrigation purposes, for which the barrage was constructed, the dam can also be used for aquaculture, animal breeding, and farming needs.

İncele - MakaleYalnız künye2011Scopus SJRQ3Use of Biochemical Markers in Capoeta trutta (Heckel, 1843) for the Assessment of Aquatic Pollution in Munzur River, Tunceli, Turkey
Yildirim, N. C.; Danabas, D.; Ergin, C.
The potential utility of biomarkers for monitoring both environmental quality and the health of organisms inhabiting polluted ecosystems has received increasing attention during the recent years. In this study. it was aimed to investigate the possible effect of pollution on biochemical parameters of Capoeta trutta captured in two environments with different levels of pollution in Munzur River, Tunceli, Turkey. One of them, hereby named reference site, there is no sewage discharge. Other side is denominated as polluted site is characterized by discharge of domestic sewage. Levels of amylase, alkaline phosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, cholesterol, albumin, total protein, direct bilirubin, total bilirubin, gamma-glutamyl tranferase, aspartate aminotransferase, alanine aminotransferase, urea, creatinine, glucose, triglycerides and uric acid were checked in blood samples. Plasma biochemical changes showed significantly differences between reference and polluted sites in alkaline phosphatase, lactate dehydrogenase, high-density lipoprotein cholesterol, cholesterol, alanine aminotransferase and glucose values. These results indicate that both domestic waste water and agricultural activities can alter the serum biochemical contents of Copeata trutta fish in Munzur River. Continuous production of pollutants resulting in impaired ability to respond to different environment stress factors and diseases. Present groups of researchers suggest that pollution levels should be monitored regularly.
