In this investigation, the results derived from the resistivity study in order to monitor the
distribution of ground water were enlarged leading to a comprehensive study including salinity and
pollution. The resistivity studies were conducted at 14 points by using vertical electric drillings, the
Schlumberger series. The average depth of vertical electric drillings were selected as 250 m. With the
help of this study, an alluvial formation affected by the saline water was observed at depths that are
close to surface (nearly 10-30 metres). This situation indicates an important salinity problem. Water
samples were taken from 72 boreholes in order to investigate the size of actual salinity and pollution.
When all the borehole data are investigated together (in chemical and bacteriological manner), it
was determined that merely 22 % of the boreholes could be utilized. Under the guidance of this study
which was forwarded to a region extending between Ayd-n-Ku/adas--Güzelçaml-, an important
ground water problem is in question within the study area. The water pollution problem should be
disposed by taking necessary measures such as purification and distilling.
