The facilities are located along a 60 km stretch of the river. Dissatisfied with the overall per - formance of their quintet of power plants, the operators turned to renowned planning specialists BERNARD Ingenieure in Hall in Tirol for a solution. The main causes of the suboptimal performance were quickly identified as problems at the intake, and the surrounding geological conditions. Based on the improvement measures worked out by the Tyrolean engineers, the facilities are now being modified to raise them to the desired performance level. he adjacent provinces of Erzincan is 139.1 GWh.

Among o h them were the five facilities on the River p Karasu, which flows through the two provin - ces of Erzurum and Erzincan. (Incidentally, the Karasu is considered to be the northern - most headstream of the Euphrates.) The Karasu power stations are all relatively new. The last of the power plant quintet to be opened was a 10-megawatt facility in the Erzincan province, in 2011.

This would quickly cause a blockage at the intake.” This is a fundamental problem, especially since there are no trash racks, fine screens or trash rack cleaners installed.

There are only slight differences in design between the five intake structures.

İlin yüzölçümü 11903 km2 kadardır. Yüzölçümü bakımından ülkemizin 24. büyük ili olan Erzincan, Doğu Anadolu Bölgesi’nde de Erzurum, Van ve Malatya’dan sonra 4. büyük il durumundadır. Erzincan ili, İl toprakları doğudan Erzurum, batıdan Sivas, güneyden Tunceli, güneydoğudan Bingöl, güneybatıdan Elazığ ve Malatya, kuzeyden Gümüşhane ve Bayburt, kuzeybatıdan ise Giresun illeri ile çevrilidir. Mülki idari bölünüşe göre Erzincan, 1 merkez ilçe ve 8 taşra ilçesinden oluşmaktadır. İl genelinde 528 köy yönetsel alanı ve 24 kentsel yönetsel alan (1 merkez ilçe, 8 ilçe merkezi ve 15 beldeler olmak üzere) bulunmaktadır. Bu yerleşmelerde 2015 yılı itibariyle 222.918 kişi yaşamakta olup, nüfus bakımından 81 il arasında 70. sırada yer almaktadır. Coğrafi mekânın birer parçası olan idari alanların bölünüşünün coğrafi koşullara ve sosyo- ekonomik yapıya uygun olması yapılacak hizmetleri kolaylaştırıcı yönde etkilemektedir. Bu özelliklerin dikkate alınmadığı durumlarda ise başta idari, ulaşım, ticari ilişkiler ve hizmetler sektörü olmak üzere ekonomik ve sosyal açıdan yerleşmeler ile bağlı oldukları idari birimler arasında birtakım sorunlar yaşanmaktadır. Bu nedenle ülkemizdeki idari birimlerin ayrıntılı olarak incelenmesi, söz konusu olumsuzlukların ortadan kaldırılmasında yardımcı olacaktır. Bu çalışmada, Erzincan ilinin idari yapısı irdelenerek fiziki ve sosyo-ekonomik koşullardan kaynaklanan problemler ortaya konulmuş ve yapılması gerekenler üzerinde durulmuştur.

Flowing south-east for 2,700 kilometres from eastern Turkey to the Persian Gulf, it supports over 60 million people and – along with the Tigris, with which it runs almost in parallel – has a rich history of sustaining civilization on the Mesopotamian plains. This vast water resource is in crisis. Degradation of the river from over-exploitation, population growth, pollution and other factors has been a serious problem for many years. Now war and violent upheaval in Syria and Iraq are worsening the situation: threatening key infrastructure and preventing policy cooperation. Without urgent attention, stresses on the river’s resources will add to the already catastrophic humanitarian crisis created by the conflict. In the longer term, a vision for cross-border coordination is essential if the river is to retain its vital role in the region.

  • Hydrological Analysis of Murat River Basin
    International Journal of Applied Science and Technology Vol. 5, No. 5; October 2015 Hydrological Analysis of Murat River Basin Warvin Hussein FATTAH Mehmet Ishak YUCE Civil Engineering Department, University of Gaziantep Turkey Abstract The overall objective of this study is to determine a practical rainfall-runoff relationship for the Murat River Basin by the linear method. The Murat River is the largest tributary of the Euphrates River situated within the borders of Turkey. The hydrologic characteristics of the basin were determined by employing the standard digital elevation model (DEM) and geographic information systems (GIS). The annual average discharge of the stream flow was acquired from seven flow measurement stations (FMS), while the annual total precipitation data was obtained from nineteen precipitation measurement stations (PMS) located within and in the vicinity of the basin. The rainfall-runoff coefficient for the whole basin was found to be around 0.6. Key Words: Murat River Basin, Basin Delineation, Basin Characteristics, Rainfall-Runoff Coefficient, Linear Method, GIS. 1. Introduction The assessment and management of water resources are vitally important, since it is essential for every form of life. Poorly managed resources can cause water scarcity or pollution, which may lead to social, economic and health crisis. The watershed based managements should include planning and conserving the available water resources. A watershed, which is also called drainage basin, drainage area, catchment, catchment area, catchment basin, river basin or water basin, can be defined as a delineated area from which the runoff drains into a single point on a stream at a lower elevation, generally the exit of the basin (Murthy, 2000; Bose et.
