dc.description.abstractAs a result of unplanned groundwater use, the effects of The Salt Lake on the fresh water sources have increased. This case will associate with significant environment problems around the Salt Lake and its environments. In this study, the data have been evaluated for the groundwater samples taken from Aksaray which is one of the agricultural areas of Turkey and bounded of south and east shores of the Salt Lake. Totally 40 groundwater samples including 3 spring and 37 well were sampled from the region. The physical and chemical parameters of the water quality were investigated bi monthly during one year. The maps of water quality were prepared by using the Geographic Information System (GIS) to evaluate well effectively the data of the groundwater. The groundwaters generally have medium salinity hazard rate and a low sodium (alkali) hazard rate in terms of irrigation water use according to the USA Salinity Laboratory Irrigation Water Classification Diagram. While the increase of the salinity have showed the presence of enters of the saline water in the south and the south-east shores of The Salt Lake, it have decreased the quality of fresh waters with respect to the drinking and the use water.
