Özet
Shallow submarine springs along the Mediterranean coast of Turkey discharge most available groundwater via highly developed karstic (buried channels), systems towards the Mediterranean Sea before interceptions for domestic and agricultural uses., This phenomenon takes place in Ovacik-Silifke village, one of the most intensive touristic places on the Mediterranean coast of Turkey. This study reports on the hydrochemical tests and dye-tracing techniques that were used to measure the amount of water discharge along the Ovacik coastline. Comparison of the electrical conductivity (EC) of the karst springs, which have a background concentration of 500 muS/cm, with the EC of the coastal and submarine discharges is an important tool for identifying the percentage of available freshwater from the shallow submarine springs.
