Groundwater salinity contributes significantly to soil salinization in irrigated areas. In this
study, spatial and temporal analyses of groundwater salinity were performed based on data …

Multivariate statistical techniques such as cluster analysis and principal component analysis
were performed on 28 groundwater wells in Bafra Plain. Cluster analysis results show that …

Abstract Salicornia prostrata Pall. and Suaeda prostrata Pall. subsp. prostrata occur together
on saline soils in Kızılırmak Delta in Samsun, Turkey. The effects of salinity stress on …

Salinity adversely affects the environment, agro-ecosystems and agricultural productivity of
arid and semi-arid regions worldwide. This salinization occurs due to natural, human or both …

Despite being a finite resource, both the quality and quantity of groundwater are under
tremendous pressure due to rapid global changes, viz. population growth, land-use/land …

Abstract The Harran Plain is located in the southeastern part of Turkey and has recently
been developed for irrigation agriculture. It already faces soil salinity problems causing …

This study was carried out to investigate possible seawater intrusion into groundwater along
the coastal lines of the Bafra Plain and salinity–alkalinity problems over land areas irrigated …

The saline groundwater irrigation is an important problem in the arid and semiarid region
because it can cause soil salinization and reduce crop productivity. The accurate spatial …

Soil and groundwater degradations have taken considerable attention, recently. We studied
spatial and temporal variations of groundwater table depth and contours, and groundwater …
