    Evidence for Sea Water Intrusion in Karstic Aquifer of Karaburun Peninsula, Nw Turkey
    (International Water Association, 2017) Baba, Alper; Gündüz, Orhan; Şimşek, Celalettin; Elçi, Alper; Murathan, Alim; Sözbilir, Hasan
    Karstic aquifers are considered to be significant sources of groundwater and are mostly under threat due to sea water intrusion in many parts of the world. Seawater intrusion is also a common problem on karstic aquifers of Karaburun Peninsula in north of Mediterranean Region. The hydrogeology of Karaburun Peninsula is fairly complex and is mostly characterized by highly permeable karstic formations with significant water storage in an otherwise water scarce area. The karstic aquifers of the region were recently found to be under severe salt water intrusion, which significantly altered the position of fresh water/sea water interface as a result of excessive pumping and fault zones controlling the karstic network.

    Investigation of sea water intrusion in the Ildırı Region (Çeşme-Turkey) coastal aquifer
    (Nevşehir Hacı Bektaş Veli Üniversitesi, 2017) Baba, Alper; Gündüz, Orhan; Şimşek, Celalettin; Elçi, Alper; Murathan, Alim; Sözbilir, Hasan
    Coastal aquifers are considered to be significant sources of groundwater and are mostly under threat due to sea water intrusion as a result of anthropogenic (i.e., over exploitation, reduced recharge due to climate change, etc.) and natural sources (i.e., tectonic features and fault line orientations) in many parts of the world. Seawater intrusion is also a common problem on coastal aquifers of Turkey.
