Özet

In this study, which was carried out between October 2019- August 2020, totally five stations were chosen from the research area. Water samples (for the analysis of total phosphorus and chlorophyll-a) were taken seasonally and also Secchi disc depth and chlorophyll-a were measured from these stations. Carlson’s Trophic State Index, OECD criteria and value range of the Turkish Water Quality Regulation were used for the determination of the trophic status of the study area. According to obtained data, the studied area of Balaban Lake has mesotrophic character according to chlorophyll a, total phosphorus, and Secchi disc depth. At the end of the study, it was determined that the Balaban Lake was at the mesotrophic level according to the Carlson trophic status index, the average±1SD interval of the OECD criteria, and Turkish Water Quality Regulation.
