Throughout history, it has always been societies that have had the opportunity to benefit from rivers. Societies had established the most advanced civilizations of their era, but they left their lands when they faced droughts. Ancient inscriptions and relics prove that the first civilizations founded cities in ancient Mesopotamia, today known as the “fertile crescent”, between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. In 3500 BC, the Tigris and Euphrates rivers were connected by a canal system constructed by the Sumerians, who benefited from these rivers more Water Administration Regional Divisions at the Early Years of Turkish Republic (22/07/1925) functionally. Anatolia is located at the crossroads of many civilizations having many The civilizations of the western Anatolia, during Hellenistic, Roman water facilities remained various periods of last 4,000 years. For that and Byzantine periods, have further contributed to the emergence of a reason, Turkey can be regarded as an open air museum in the context “water culture” in Anatolia. During these periods, water springs in of the relics of facilities of water resources development. mountains paved the way for water conveyance systems adapting to The Urartu civilization giving life to Van and its vicinity with many topographic features of the area and the replacement of canals by dams, reservoirs and irrigation canals deserves being referred to as the aqueducts to bring water to settlement areas. Water stored, conveyed to “Hydraulic Civilization”. These facilities dating back to the 1000 BC settlement areas by pipes. The first modern irrigation facility in played important role in transition from transhumance to settled Anatolia dates back to 1908-1914 (Ottoman period) as “Çumra communities engaging farming.

The water resources having a flow of more than 500 liter per second fell within the mandate of the DSİ while smaller surface flows fell within the mandate of the GDRS which was dissolved in 2005. SPAs (Special Provincial Administrations) have taken over the responsibilities of GDRS.

Furthermore, there are differences in the amount of food production per capita among the regions in the world. In developed countries, less than 5% of general population involves in agriculture sector and a farmer family besides its own needs can meet the food requirements of 50 people who are active in non-agricultural sectors. In developing countries, 60% of general population is active in agricultural sector; above mentioned figure is just limited to 2 people. Therefore, agricultural sector is important for economic and social development of the country and food security as well. Water in irrigation is one of the most important inputs in the agricultural sector. It enables the agriculture partly independent upon climatic conditions, creates additional employment, improves income distribution in rural areas, makes fertilizer use possible, increases a variety of production, and results in yielding more than one crop depending on the length of the growing season. Increased crop yield with irrigated agriculture contributes greatly to food security of the country, provides important inputs to the agricultural industries, and halts migration to big cities and

  • The Possible Effects of Irrigation Schemes and Irrigation Methods on Water Budget and Economy in Atatürk Dam of South-Eastern Anatolia Region of Turkey
    The possible effects of irrigation schemes and irrigation methods on water budget and economy in Atatürk dam of south-eastern Anatolia region of Turkey Huseyin Demir1, Ahmet Zahir Erkan2, Nesrin Baysan2, Gonca Karaca Bilgen2 1 GAP Şanlıurfa Tünel Çıkış Ağzı 2 GAP Cankaya, Ankara, Turkey Abstract. The South-eastern Anatolia Project (GAP) has been implemented in the southeast part of Turkey, covering 9 provinces and the two most important rivers of Turkey. The main purpose of this gorgeous project is to uplift the income level and living standards of people in the region, to remove the inter-regional development disparities and to contribute to the national goals of economic development and social stability. The cost of the project is 32 billion USD consisting of 13 sub-projects in the river basins of Euphrates and Tigris. The project has evolved over time and has become multi sectoral, integrated and human based on the sustainable regional development. Upon the fully completion of the project, 1.8 Million hectares of land will be able to be irrigated in Euphrates and Tigris Basins through surface and underground water resources. From 1995 until now, 273.000 ha. of land have already been irrigated within the GAP Project. Roughly 739,000 ha. of this land will be irrigated from Atatürk Dam, the largest dam of GAP Project. At present, nearly ¼ of this area is under irrigation. Some technological developments have been experienced in the Project area, ranging from upstream controlled schemes having trapezoidal section, lined or unlined, to upstream controlled schemes having high pressurized piped system; and from conventional methods to drip irrigation method.

In this study, Cr, Ni and Zn levels were determined by atomic absorption spectrophotometry in edible muscle and skin tissues of Cyprinus carpio in Çamlıgöze Dam Lake located at Central Anatolian region of Turkey. The maximum levels were found to be 0.12 (Cr), 2.15 (Ni), 0.51 (Zn) µg/g in the muscle and 0.15 (Cr), 2.07 (Ni), 1.97 (Zn) µg/g in the skin of Cyprinus carpio. It was determined that Ni was the highest metal in tissues. The highest Cr and Zn levels were determined in the skin of Cyprinus carpio, whereas the highest Ni levels were measured in the muscle. The heavy metal accumulation orders for the tissues were as follows: Ni>Zn>Cr in Çamlıgöze Dam Lake. There was important statistical differences, especially at the level of zinc accumulation in tissues (p<0.001). There was a significant and positive correlation between age, total length, weight and metal levels for Cr (r>0.25, p<0.05) in the muscle and skin of Cyprinus carpio in Çamlıgöze Dam Lake.
