Özet

In the field of population density on Earth, pollution results from human activities. Accumulation of water, air and soil wastes is released to the environment, and ultimately the life is threatened. In this study, the samples taken from 12 different points are evaluated in terms of water quality in Narman, located in the eastern Anatolia region of Turkey. This area is located around a particular geological formation, namely, the red fairy chimneys. This study area involves ground and surface water resources which are adversely affected by wastes of residential areas.
