The Turkish Republic of Northern
Cyprus (T.R.N.C.) is under the Mediterranean climatic conditions and there is
fairly water trouble due to insufficient rainfall and incorrect irrigation
methods. For this reason, the investigations have been carrying out by The
General Directorate of Mineral Research and Exploration (MTA) and also have
been supporting by remote sensing methods. In this application, Landsat 5 TM's
thermal IR band, which is the date 28.06.1994, 176/35-36 path/row and 30x30 m
resolution, was evaluated and the temperature analysis of the sea surface along
the T.R.N.C. shorelines was processed and the cold areas which can be
interpreted as ground water outputs were detected in the surrounding of the
Cape Koruçam (NW of Cyprus). The relation between these data from the satellite
image and the land was researched by both aerial photographs and field
observations. It is found that the paleokarstification was developed on the
Upper Pliocene-Pleistocene aged bioclastic limestones and also a probably
calcerous crust covering this formation in the surrounding of Sadrazamköy. It
is understood that the bioclastic limestones and the karstic areas formed under
the humid climatic conditions and morphometrically located at same levels as
the sea terrace levels can be thought as a potential aquifer area.
