Living beings need water to sustain their lives. Usage, conservation and management of water supplies are therefore extremely important. Researches on the investigation of the water quality properties of aquatic ecosystems are frequently carried out. The purpose of this study is to determine water quality characteristics of Acı Lake and Meke Lake. The lakes are located in Konya Province, Karapınar District and they are important habitats for birds and other species. In this study, some physical and inorganic parameters were examined in Acı Lake and Meke Lake at July 2014, October 2014 and January 2015. During the study, water samples were taken seasonally from the stations in the lakes. Results were compared with water pollution control regulation (SKKY) and water intended for human consumption standards (TS-266). According to Pearson Correlation Index (PCI) analysis, physical and inorganic parameters relationships were determined. About the measurement results of the physical and inorganic parameters, temperature values at July 2014 in two lakes, electrical conductivity values for all measurements in two lakes, dissolved oxygen and oxygen saturation values at July 2014 and October 2014 in Meke Lake and color values for all measurements in Meke Lake exceeded the limit values specified in the regulations, values other than these were found within the limit values of the regulation. According to PCI results, physical and inorganic parameters showed positive and negative correlation with each other in Acı Lake and Meke Lake.
Canlılar yaşamlarını sürdürmek için suya ihtiyaç duyarlar. Su kaynaklarının kullanımı, korunması ve yönetimi bu nedenle son derece önemlidir. Sucul ekosistemlerin, su kalitesi özelliklerinin araştırılmasına yönelik çalışmalar sıklıkla yapılmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Acı Göl ve Meke Gölü'nün bazı su kalitesi özelliklerini belirlemektir. Göller Konya İli Karapınar İlçesi'nde yer almaktadır ayrıca kuşlar ve diğer canlılar için önemli yaşam alanları durumundadırlar. Bu çalışmada, Temmuz 2014 - Ocak 2015 tarihleri arasında Acı Göl ve Meke Gölü'nde bazı fiziksel ve inorganik parametreler incelenmiştir. Çalışma sırasında göllerden belirlenen istasyonlardan, mevsimsel olarak su örnekleri alınmıştır. Sonuçlar, Su Kirliliği Kontrol Yönetmeliği (SKKY) ve İnsani Tüketim Amaçlı Sular Hakkında Yönetmeliği göre (TS-266) karşılaştırılmıştır. Pearson Correlation Matrix (PCA) analizine göre fiziksel ve inorganik parametrelerin ilişkileri belirlenmiştir. İki göldeki fiziksel ve inorganik parametrelerin ölçümlerine göre bazı sonuçların yönetmelikte belirtilen değerleri aştığı belirlenmiştir. Pearson Correlation Matrix (PCA) analizine göre Acı Göl ve Meke Gölü'nde fiziksel ve inorganik parametreler birbirleriyle pozitif ve negatif korelasyon göstermiştir.
