Who Is Water Rich and Who Is Poor? Is it only the amount ? World Water Council Water Poverty Index (WPI) 3rd Water Forum resources-access-capacity-use-environmental impact Among 147 countries Haiti Worst-Finland Best • Why WPI: Because it makes the links between • poverty, • social deprivation, • environmental integrity, • water availability and • Health • enabling the policy makers and stakeholders to identify where problems exist • and the appropriate measures to deal with their causes..
Problems Related To Water Resources in Turkey Depletion of groundwater level Loss of wetlands Polluted surface waters Polluted groundwater Salinization of coastal groundwaters Rapid and uncontrolled changes in land-use Rapid and uncontrolled growth Quantity Consequences: Quality Deficiencies ? Lack of advanced technologies? qualified personnel ? integrated approach? Institutional structure (vertical-lateral coordination)? policies based on knowledge of the phenomena? participation of the locals in planning and implementing? public awareness ?

DESCRIPTION OF TURKISH KARST Tectonics Source of Energy Gradient Lithology Type of Karst Erosion Base Control Climate Criterion:Morphology & Hydrological Function
DESCRIPTION OF TURKISH KARST • Lithology: • Petrography:Degree of Diagenesis/Content of Impurities • Thickness : Relative to erosion base controller • Mode of Existence:Authocthonous/Allochthonous • Tectonic: • Compression:contraction/extension • Tension:contraction/extension • Source of Energy Gradient: • Uplift (tectonics) • Eustatic Sea Level Changes • Interior Lake Level Changes • River Incision • Erosion Base Controller: • Sea Level • Interior Lake • River • Impervious Unit • Climate: • Wet: Cold/Hot • Dry: Cold/Hot
