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; Şanlıyüksel Yücel, Deniz; Turan, Recep Yavuz; Baba, AlperIn 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 Groundwater Resources in Local Development Strategies: Case of Izmir(International Water Association, 2017) Velibeyoğlu, Koray; Yazdani, Hamidreza; Baba, AlperRural socio economic development has gained utmost importance in Turkish Metropolitan Municipalities within the frame of recent legal changes extending boundaries towards their peripheral areas. With this regard, Ġzmir Metropolitan Municipality has completed series of local development strategies aiming at the sustainable development of the city‘s rural hinterland. For three fertile sub region of Izmir, namely as Yarımada, Gediz Bakırçay and Küçük Menderes, local development strategies were prepared consecutively. In the framework of local development strategies; agriculture, tourism, settlement pattern and culture, local innovation and entrepreneurship, and environmental issues and water resources were examined as project themes. Among them, water resources has utmost important since the local development of whole sectors are largely dependent on them. Therefore, local development strategies have underlined the reality of river basins and potentials and limitations on groundwater resources due to the fact that surface waters have already been contaminated.Conference Object The Impacts of Planning Criteria’s on Groundwater Sources: Case of Izmir New City Center(International Water Association, 2017) Yazdani, Hamidreza; Baba, AlperCities with historical background, according to their geographic or economic alteration generally possess different town centers. Mostly for better protection against human or non-human factors the center of cities are relocated. The city of Ġzmir is one the magnificent case of city center resettlements. The premier location of city that is estimated to be 5000-8000 years before was in Bornova reeds in the north. Far from the sea and as results of serious disease the settlement relocated to Smyrna in Bayraklı. Smyrna was then abounded after massive earthquakes. Pagos hills (Kadifekale) with its great defending potential become the next city of Smyrna. Then, the economic value of harbor and rail-way moved the city to the cost. In all this location selection, geographic characters present crucial role in optimizing the decision.Conference Object Evaluating Impacts of Urbanization on Recharge of Groundwater Resources: Case Study: Bornova Plain (izmir/Turkey)(International Water Association, 2017) Yazdani, Hamidreza; Kılıç, Çılga; Baba, AlperIncreasing the World‘s population and industrialization in parallel with urbanization has created serious problems on water resources. Over the next forty years it is expected to add 2,5 million people on world population. To fulfill the needs of increasing population, the water demand will increase but the increasing of demand towards water is more rapid than increasing of population. Urbanization is a global phenomenon that is quickly altering the physical structure of any region. Bornova plain is located in water basin of Ġzmir where it is the most important settlement of the Aegean Region from the ancient ages to the current era. In this study, impacts of urbanization and population growth on groundwater resources were analyzed using GIS in Bornova Plain, where it is one of the most important groundwater aquifers and it supports about 16% of domestic water resources of Izmir City.
