Lake
Nazik is located in 1816 m above sea level and in 380 51’ N 420 14’ E coordinates. In this study, to
identify the value of monthly chlorophyll-a, ENVISAT/MERIS satellite images
were used. On the other hand, MODIS/Aqua satellite images were also used to
identify the value of monthly surface water temperature. Carrying capacity of
lake was identified as 24100.21 tons/year, and an annual average chlorophyll-a
value was found out as 7.12 mg/m3. Using data on ENVISAT/MERIS satellite images,
it has been observed that the chlorophyll-a concentration in Lake Nazik reached
its highest value of 30.071 mg/m3 in September, while dropping to its lowest value
of 3.727 mg/m3
in January. Using data on MODIS/Aqua satellite images, it has been observed
that the maximum value of water surface temperaturewas 22.89 C0 in August, while
the minimum value was2.33 C0 in December. Furthermore, it was found out that
theannual average value for water surface temperature during the study was 14.9
C0.
