Investigation of Hydrogeological Properties of Karakuyu (Afyon) Lake Wetland and Its Surroundings
Abstract
In this study, geological and hydrogeological properties of the Karakuyu Lake wetland and its surroundings were investigated. In addition, the hydrogeochemical properties, availability and quality of the water resources have been determined in the study area. The rock units are observed with different age and lithology in the Mesozoic-Quaternary periods in the study area. The most important surface waters are Karakuyu Lake, Kumalar stream and Eldere spring. The maximum groundwater dept is determined as 15.15 m and groundwater flow direction is towards the Karakuyu Lake. In order to determine hydrogeochemical features of the water resources, chemical analyses of the water samples were performed. According to the obtained results, water resources are Ca-Mg-HCO3, Ca-HCO3facies. In addition, all of the water samples can be used as drinking and irrigation water and the waters are in general water quality class I based on water quality assessments.
