Interpretation : Lake Mogan, having high ecological and cultural significance, has been under intense pressure of urbanization and industrialization due to its location on the periphery of the capital Ankara. In this study, we analyzed data from satellite remote sensing, Geographic Information System and Cellular Automata Markov Chain modelling to predict land use/cover changes in Lake Mogan an...

Contamination of the aquatic environment with various concentrations of pollutants results in unexpected threats to humans and wildlife. The consequences of exposure and metabolism of pollutants/xenobiotics, especially carcinogens and mutagens, can be suitably assessed by investigating severe events, such as DNA damage; for example, DNA adducts and DNA strand breaks. One of the commonly used te...

In this study, some metals (aluminium, chromium, copper, iron, manganese, lead, zinc and vanadium) and metalloid (silicon) were determined in water, sediment and some tissues of fish Cyprinus carpio from Mogan Lake. Fish samples were caught in March 2007. As a result of the examination of metals in the water aluminium has the lowest and silicon has the highest concentration. In sediment samples...

in this study, the effect of some toxic organic chemicals on mogan lake has been investigatedusing the aquatox model. the unique property of the model includes the sub ecotoxicological modelwhen compared to the other water quality models. the ecosystem model aquatox, which is one of the fewgeneral ecological risk models that represents the combined environmental repercussions and effects of tox...

The lake management strategy of sediment dredging (removal) is periodically undertaken in shallow, eutrophic Mogan Lake, an important recreation area. This study aims to use certain indices - enrichment index (EF), contamination/pollution (CF), degree contamination (Cd), pollution load (PLI), geoaccumulation (Igeo), potential ecological risk (Eri), integrated (PER), and mean probable effect con...

Dredging, a practice intended to increase the recreational value of aquatic systems at risk eutrophication, has been implemented in Lake Mogan. This study aimed determine a) Heavy metal concentrations (Hg, As, Cd, Cr, Pb, Ni, Cu, and Zn) overlying water sediment pore water, b) Pore toxicity levels some these metals (Cu, following dredging Surface samples were taken from two stations lake betwee...
