In this study; The mosses around the Kahramanmaraş-Adana highway were analyzed and information was obtained about the heavy metal pollution of the region. In this study, as a result of macroscopic and microscopic examination of mosses collected from the field, species identification has been made. Heavy metal analyzes were performed with Energy-dispersive X-Ray fluorescence spectrometry (EDXRF). As a result of the analyzes, Al, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn and Pb were found. With the current study; It is aimed to obtain information about heavy metal pollution along the motorway in the Eastern Mediterranean region. This study is the first study to determine heavy metal pollution by analyzing mosses related to traffic density in the region. Therefore, in this study; heavy metal analyzes were carried out on the mosses collected along the highway. The possible effects of the results on human and environmental health are discussed. Another result is that the mosses used in these studies are a good indicator plant group. It has also been shown that the concentrations of heavy metals are important for the environment and human health.

Türkiye’nin Doğu Akdeniz Bölgesindeki(Kahramanmaraş-Adana) Otoyol Çevresindeki Karayosunlarında Ağır Metal Analizleri

Öz

Bu araştırmada; Kahramanmaraş-Adana otoyolu çevresindeki karayosunları analiz edilmiş ve bölgenin ağır metal kirliliği hakkında bilgi edinilmiştir. Bu çalışma da araziden toplanan karayosunları laboratuarda makroskobik ve mikroskobik incelenmeleri neticesinde tür teşhisleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Ağır metal analizleri, Enerji ayırımlı X-Işını floresans spektrometresi (EDXRF) ile gerçekleştirilmiştir. Analizler neticesinde karayosunlarında, Al, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni, Cu, Zn ve Pb olduğu belirlenmiştir. Mevcut çalışma ile; Doğu Akdeniz bölgesinde bulunan Otoyol boyunca ağır metal kirliliği hakkında bilgi edinilmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Bu çalışma, bölgedeki trafik yoğunluğu ile ilişkili karayosunlarının analiz edilerek ağır metal kirliliğinin belirlenmesinde ki ilk çalışmadır. Bundan dolayı bu çalışmada; otoyol boyunca toplanan karayosunlarında ağır metal analizleri gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bulunan sonuçların, İnsan ve çevre sağlığı üzerine muhtemel etkileri tartışılmıştır. Elde edilen sonuçlardan bir diğeri ise bu tür çalışmalarda kullanılan karayosunlarının iyi bir indikatör bitki grubu oldukları sonucu tekrar belirlenmiştir. Ayrıca ağır metallerin yoğunluklarının çevre ve insan sağlığı açısından önemli olduğu da gösterilmiştir.
