Büyük Menderes Delta

+ info

Büyük Menderes River, in western Turkey after flowing 560 km form the Büyük Menderes Delta, where it flows into the Aegean Sea. The delta is the largest delta on the Aegean coast of our country, consisting of several lagoons, wide salt marshes and mud flats. Freshwater vegetation is found along the river and main drainage channels.

Büyük Menderes

Dalmatian pelican, swamp swallow, maple plover, Mediterranean gull, Caspian tern and small terns are important species breeding in the area. In winter, significant numbers of waterfowl can be seen, including cormorants, cormorants, crested pelicans, great egrets, flamingos, fiu, avocets and thin-billed gulls. .

Fauna

Büyük Menderes Delta has a very rich plant diversity. The different and various physical features of both the Dilek Peninsula and the Büyük Menderes Delta have caused the vegetation to be different and diverse within short distances. 804 plant species have been identified in the National Park. 6 of these plants can only be seen here in the world.

FLORA

Numerous domestic and industrial wastewaters in the Büyük Menderes basin cause pollution of the river. The fertilizers and pesticides used in the cotton fields cultivated around the delta are transported to the area in various ways and drainage waters returning from agriculture. Farmers use it for irrigation by closing the mouth of the river and the main drain. Poaching is carried out in the area; fish fry are collected illegally and uncontrolled.

Major Threats and Problems

As a result of the deterioration in the water balance of the area, excessive fishing and pollution, the fishing in the region has come to the stage of collapse. While the cooperatives, which had 1169 members in 1990, caught 614 tons of fish per year, this amount decreased to 100 tons in 1995. Fish fry are collected illegally and uncontrolled and sold to fish farms. It is planned to establish fish farms in the lagoons, but first of all their environmental impact must be thoroughly studied.

We can list the things to do in the delta as follows:

Fertilizers and pesticides used in agriculture should be controlled and eco-farming should be encouraged.

Research and monitoring activities must be carried out continuously in the delta.

Facilities that give pollution to the Büyük Menderes River should be provided with treatment facilities.

Planning and management of the quality and quantity of water resources should be handled on a basin basis, and integrative cooperation should be ensured among the relevant institutions.

GÖRDES DELTA

Gördes Stream (River) emerges near Manisa Demirci Gülpınarlar village. Its other name is Kum Stream. It is one of the water resources that feed the Gediz basin.

GÖRDES STREAM (RİVER)

Gördes Stream, which previously poured into Marmara Lake, is collected here after the Gördes dam was built. It is used for agricultural irrigation in the region. After the dam was built,

GÖRDES DAM

iNfo FOR IZMIR

After the dam was built, it was started to be used as a drinking water source for Izmir, the largest city nearby. Although this use has adversely affected the water level of the Marmara Lake, it is in a very important position in terms of meeting the water need for İzmir. Gördes Stream, which previously poured into Marmara Lake, adversely affected the water level of the Marmara Lake when Gördes Dam was built. Despite this, it is in a very important position in terms of meeting the water needs of İzmir.

LOCATION

Gördes Stream It has a distance of approximately 57 km from its source to Gördes Dam. It has a basin of 380,089 km2. Gördes basin constitutes 22% of the Gediz basin and has a population of 189,298 people. This population corresponds to 13% of the total Gediz basin. It starts from Gülpınarlar Village of Demirciler district of Manisa province and reaches Gördes dam in Dalkara village after passing Gördes district and 10 villages.

gediz DELTA

Gediz Basin in western Turkey, is being positioned in the Aegean Region, through the waters of the Gediz River and its tributaries emptying into the Aegean Sea, North Aegean, covers the area between Susurluk and Küçük Menderes Basin. the footprint of Gediz Basin constitutes 2.17% of the surface area of ​​Turkey

GEDİZ DELTA

The provinces of Kütahya, Uşak, Manisa and İzmir are located within the borders of the Gediz Basin. 3 districts of Kütahya, 15 of Manisa and 3 districts of İzmir are located within the basin boundaries. In this adventure that started in Kütahya, he reaches the sea in İzmir.

In the past, especially in the 1980s, the fact that licenses were given to sand and gravel quarries, on the one hand, affected the fauna negatively by disrupting the natural structure, on the other hand, caused the water level of the river to decrease and this negatively affected the underground waters of the plain it passes through. Leatherworking in the river, Uşak, etc. Industrial wastes cause pollution by industrial facilities. From time to time, the dirt accumulated on the water, chemical wastes of different colors can be clearly seen even with the naked eye.

PROBLEM

For today, the most important problem of the Gediz Basin has been ecological pollution.

1. In order to protect the natural resources, environment and human health in the basin and to prevent pollution, wastewater infrastructure management should be able to provide quality infrastructure services.2. Making necessary legislation and project studies to restrict the use of fertilizers and pesticides in the basin and to adopt effective irrigation methods for water saving.3. In addition to all these pollution sources in the basin, there is also pollution arising from mining activities. Regular audits of operating mines.4. It is the control of erosion in the basin. At this point, the studies determined for the Gediz Basin should be carried out within the framework of the Action Plan for Combating Erosion, which was prepared in order to reduce soil losses in the basins to restore the ecological balance, to minimize the socio-economic effects of erosion, to increase the coordination of public institutions fighting erosion, efficient use of public resources and the effectiveness of combating erosion efforts. .

KÜÇÜK MENDERES

+ info

Fertile river basins play an important role in the historical development of Western Anatolia. Küçük Menderes River is the longest river in Anatolia after B. Menderes and Gediz with a length of 138 km. The region where the K. Menderes river flows, surrounded by Bozdağ with a height of 2157 m in the north, Aydın Mountains (1651) in the south and Alaman Mountains (771 m) in the west, is within the borders of İzmir province and its surface area is 3280 km2. Torbalı, Selçuk, Tire, Bayındır, Ödemiş and Kiraz districts are located within this region, and the number of villages is about 29

+ info

In the area known as Selçuk Bird Paradise, 92 bird species belonging to 38 families have been identified. During the migration, a significant number of small cormorants lodge in the area. The spurred lapwing, which is endangered at the regional level, breeds in the area; The rat-tailed dormouse, which is endangered on a global scale, live here. The spotted tortoise, tortoise and house snake are reptile species that meet specific nature area criteria. The area is also very important for inland fish. It is a protected priority butterfly species living in the "big brown" area, endemic to our country.

IMPORTANCE FOR THE REGION

Factors causing water quality problems in rivers and basins; Direct domestic wastewater discharges, pollution from irregular solid waste storage facilities, insufficient industrial wastewater treatment, leachate from olive farms, uncontrolled use of pesticides and fertilizers, pollution caused by mining activities and geothermal activities, and other reasons. Within the Küçük Menderes River Basin; There are 35 individual industrial facilities, 20 of which are in the food sector, 54 olive cultivation facilities and 4 organized industrial zones. Apart from these point sources, we can define the diffuse pollution loads coming to the basin as pollutants originating from septic tanks, irregular solid waste storage areas, agricultural resources, fertilizer use, land use, livestock activities, mining activities, transportation and air pollutants.

POLLUTION PROBLEM AND ITS CAUSES

In the framework of bilateral cooperation in the France-Turkey surrounding areas, built-International with the support of the Water Office in France "Great Menderes, Küçük Menderes, Gediz and North Aegean River Basin Integrated Management Project" was launched in November 1997. The goal of the project; was to create a model that could provide integrated management of water resources in the defined region. The project was carried out in three stages as master plan, feasibility and investments. As a result of the project, 24 action programs including Küçük Menderes River Basin were determined for the short term. In the region, Ege Doğa and EKGT regularly make waterfowl counts in mid-winter.

Bartin River; It is the most regular river that can be reached from the Black Sea to the city with ships of 500 tons. Flow rate 720 m per hour. and flows 1.000.000.000 m3 of water to the sea every year. [2] Bartın River (Yali locality), Amasra Antikliman and Fisherman's Shelters; It has features that can be evaluated in yacht tourism. This has a great effect on fishing and tourism in the region.Although they are creamy in the Bartın Stream basin, they are represented by samples of sedimentary and solidification rocks. The unit consisting of limestone, clayey limestone and slope sediments is the least common example of Cretaceous sediments in the field. It is encountered in a limited area in the north east of Bartın city center. In the downstairs of Bartın Stream, after Bartın city center. Cretaceous aged solidification rocks are located in a northeast-northwest trending direction. This unit is represented by sedimentary samples of solidification rocks together with andesites. The other unit of Cretaceous age, which covers very large areas in the Bartın Stream basin, is the unit consisting of sandstone, mudstone, shelf, shelf-slope sedimentary rocks. Generally, they form the southeast of the basin. This area, where rock groups of different ages show small outcrops, also represents the high altitude part of the basin.

DANUBIUM ROMANIA

Dunarea is a very important river because of its natural beauty and amount of aquatic animals it contains, such as the: Pastruga, Nisetrul and Scrumbia de Dunare, some of which can also provide a food source for people living near the river.

DUNAREA

The importance of fishing on the Danube, which was critical in the Middle Ages, has declined dramatically.Some fishermen are still active at certain points on the river, and the Danube Delta still has an important industry.

The damming of the Danube floodplain has led to a drastic reduction in water storage capacity during floods. For this reason, due to the increasing and frequent floods, a large amount of water no longer flows into the river meadow, leading to catastrophic floods in inhabited areas. The gravel and sand extraction works bring local and regional changes to the river morphology. In addition, a number of species of fish and insects are dependent on fine sand to lay their eggs or larvae. Due to the intense dredging of the riverbed, the river deepens and causes the decrease of the groundwater level in the meadow, which leads to the drying of the meadow forests, but also to the increase of the irrigation costs of the arable lands during the dry periods.
