Abstract

Water quantity and quality management are the most important factors in ensuring the sustainability of the ecological balance, and the researches conducted on this issue attract attention in all areas where sustainable integrated management is addressed. Evaluation of water quality observations from various perspectives is also one of the basic elements of sustainable water management for decision makers. Evaluation of seasonal changes in water quality caused by meteorological, hydrological and human-induced changes is important in terms of their use in management decisions. In the presented study, Küçük Menderes Basin, where there are dense agricultural regions, was selected, and the surface water quality parameters was analyzed by non-parametric statistical methods in terms of seasonal changes in surface water quality. Due to the results of the study, it was observed that there is a significant increase in organic pollution and nitrogen variable concentrations, where a significant decrease is observed in dissolved oxygen value throughout the basin during the selected time period. The evaluation of the seasonal variations of the water quality parameters with the evaluations will constitute the infrastructure for the preparation of many pollution prevention plans; contribute to the determination of the factors that will form the basis for future planning, and similarly, it will be a support infrastructure in the evaluation of management, administration and observation system decisions.

Özet

Ekolojik dengenin sürdürülebilirliğini sağlamak için en önemli unsurların başında su miktarı ve kalitesi yönetimi gelmekte, bu konuda yürütülen araştırmalar, sürdürülebilir entegre yönetimin ele alındığı her alanda ilgi görmektedir. Su kalitesi gözlemlerinin çeşitli açılardan değerlendirilmesi, karar vericiler için sürdürülebilir su yönetiminin de temel unsurlardan biridir. Meteorolojik, hidrolojik ve insan kaynaklı değişimlerin neden olduğu su kalitesindeki mevsimsel değişikliklerin değerlendirilmesi, yönetim kararlarında kullanılması açısından önem taşımaktadır. Sunulan çalışmada, yoğun tarımsal bölgelerin bulunduğu Küçük Menderes Havzası seçilmiş, bölgenin iklim özelliklerine göre, incelenen dönem soğuk ve sıcak olarak ikiye ayrılarak, yüzeysel su kalitesindeki değişimin incelenmesi ve parametrik olmayan istatistiksel yöntemlerle değişkenlerdeki dönemsel eğilimin ortaya konması amaçlanmıştır. Çalışma sonuçlarına göre, incelenen zaman aralığında havza genelinde organik kirlilik ve azot değişkeni konsantrasyonlarında anlamlı bir artış, çözünmüş oksijen değerinde ise anlamlı bir azalma olduğu izlenmiştir. Yapılan değerlendirmeler ile su kalitesi parametrelerinin mevsimsel değişimlerinin incelenmesinin, kirlilik önleme planlarının hazırlanmasına alt yapı oluşturacağı düşünülmekte; gelecek planlamalara temel oluşturulacak etken unsurların belirlenmesine katkıda bulunulacağı ve benzer şekilde, yönetim, idare ve gözlem sistemi kararlarının değerlendirilmesinde de destek alt yapı olacağı düşünülmektedir.
