Conference Object Monitoring of Acid Mine Lakes by Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (uav) on Geographic Information System (gis) Around Can Region, Biga Peninsula, Nw Turkey(Muğla Sıtkı Koçman Üniversitesi, 2014) Yücel, Mehmet Ali; Baba, Alper; Turan, Recep Yavuz; Baba, Alper; 03.03. Department of Civil Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyIn the past three decades, a few small scale private enterprises have been operating around Can Region, Biga Peninsula, NW Turkey which is rich in lignite reserves. They have abandoned the operation land without providing any working of rehabilitation. during the operation of high sulfur content lignite, the topography have been damaged and this caused the large holes and deterioration in these areas. As a result of discharge of surface water the artificial lakes have been formed. In the course of the time, these lakes gain acidic character due to acid generation from pyrite oxidation. Significantly high acidity with low pH values ranging from 2.53 to 3.05 is recorded from AMLs.Conference Object Hydrogeochemical Characteristics of Acidic Water Sources Around Can Region, Biga Peninsula, Nw Turkey(Muğla Sıtkı Koçman Üniversitesi, 2014) Şanlıyüksel Yücel, Deniz; Baba, Alper; 03.03. Department of Civil Engineering; 03. Faculty of Engineering; 01. Izmir Institute of TechnologyAcid rock drainage (ARD) is one of the major sources of water pollution in some countries. Densely generation of ARD have been seen around Can Region (Biga Peninsula-NW Turkey) due to altered (silicification, argillic alteration) volcanic rocks which contain sulfide minerals and specially pyrite and there is inadequate availability of neutralizing carbonate minerals. Forty water samples (including 17 drilling, 5 drinking water, and 18 spring water) were collected from 2011 to 2012. The result show that pH of water samples is lower than 5 in most part of study area.Conference Object Structural Controls on Gülbahçe Geothermal System and Its Hydrogeochemical Properties (western Turkey)(Muğla Sıtkı Koçman Üniversitesi, 2014) Uzelli, Taygun; Mungan, Gamze Gül; Baba, Alper; Uzelli, Taygun; 03.03. Department of Civil Engineering; 01.01. Units Affiliated to the Rectorate; 01. Izmir Institute of Technology; 03. Faculty of EngineeringGülbahçe Geothermal Field (GGF) is located in eastern parts of the Karaburun Peninsula and is about 45 km away from the city of Izmir, Turkey. The stratigraphy around the GGF is represented by a Miocene volcano-sedimentary succession, including several sedimentary and volcanic units. These units overlie the basement rocks of the Karaburun Platform Carbonates and Bornova Flysch Zone which consists of carbonate blocks embedded in sandstone and mudstone alternations. GGF is located on the Gülbahçe Fault Zone, and are composed of series of NW-SE to NE-SW trending faults, extending from Sığacık Bay to Gülbahçe Bay. While most of the geothermal systems in western Turkey are controlled by normal faults, geothermal systems at the Gülbahçe are controlled by NE/NW-trending strike-slip faults and NE/NW-trending oblique-slip normal faults. An association of these active faults accommodating deep circulation of hydrothermal fluids of sea water origin is the primary control mechanisms of geothermal systems of Gülbahçe.
