Porsuk Stream passing from the borders of Eskişehir and Kütahya has a significant water supply, feeds Sakarya River which has important water potential in Turkey. In particular, a part of Porsuk Stream Basin Porsuk Dam Lake up to the province of Eskişehir is used as drinking and potable water basin. Therefore, determination of water quality of Porsuk Stream has a great importance for the health of ecosystems in the region. In this study, water samples were collected from 18 stations located on the Porsuk Stream and some important physicochemical parameters temperature, pH, dissolved oxygen, turbitidy, salinity, conductivity, ammonium nitrogen, nitrite nitrogen, nitrate nitrogen, sulphate, total phosphorus, biochemical oxygen demand and chemical oxygen demand were investigated in order to determine the water quality of Porsuk Stream. Obtained data were evaluated by Geographic Information System GIS in order to make a visual explanation by presenting distribution maps of investigated parameters. As a result of this study, water of Porsuk Stream was determined as significantly inorganically and organically polluted on especially output stations of Kütahya and Eskişehir Provinces
Porsuk Çayı, Kütahya ve Eskişehir il sınırlarından geçerek Türkiye’nin önemli su potansiyellerinden biri olan Sakarya Nehri’ni besleyen ve her iki il içinde önemi tartışılmaz bir akarsudur. Özellikle, Eskişehir iline kadar olan kısmının Porsuk Barajı içme ve kullanma suyu havzası olması nedeni ile su kalite çalışmaları ve alınacak tedbirler bölgede bulunan ekosistemlerin sağlığı açısından büyük önem arz etmektedir. Bu çalışmada, Porsuk Çayı'nın kaynağından Sakarya Nehri'yle birleştiği yere kadar olan bölgeden seçilen 18 istasyonun su örneklerinde bazı önemli fizikokimyasal parametreler sıcaklık, pH, iletkenlik, tuzluluk, çözünmüş oksijen, bulanıklık, amonyum azotu, nitrit azotu, nitrat azotu, sülfat, toplam fosfor, biyokimyasal oksijen ihtiyacı, kimyasal oksijen ihtiyacı araştırılmıştır. Çalışma alanında ölçülen parametrelerin görsel özetlerinin etkili bir şekilde sunulabilmesi amacıyla Coğrafi Bilgi Sistemleri CBS kullanılarak dağılım haritaları oluşturulmuştur. Porsuk Çayı’nın kaynağı ile karşılaştırıldığında, Kütahya ve Eskişehir illeri çıkışında yoğun organik ve inorganik kirlilikten dolayı su kalitesinin düştüğü ve kirlilik yükünün önemli derecede yükseldiği tespit edilmiştir
