- Abstract
In this study, the hydrochemical structure of groundwater in the Akçaşehir (Karaman) region and the factors forming this structure were investigated using chemical analysis data. In the evaluations, the origin of the chemical composition of the groundwater and the control mechanisms were determined by ion ratio analysis, correlation analysis and other hydrogeochemical methods. The Akçaşehir plain is located in the northeast of Karaman province. There are many drilling wells used in groundwater supply on the plain. The foundation of the study area consists of allochthonous rocks belonging to the Bolkar Mountain Unit. Current sediments with free aquifer characteristics and limestones in the region are important aquifers containing groundwater. In the study, it was determined that 74% of the water samples were in the Mg-Ca-HCO3/Ca-Mg-HCO3 water facies. The most effective hydrogeochemical process forming this structure is carbonate dissociation. The Na+ and SO4-2 increases detected in some samples are related to silicate dissociation and ion exchange processes. In general, it was determined that the water-rock interaction in the area directly affects the hydrogeochemical processes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
