Characterizing the spatio-temporal distribution of groundwater-surface water exchange fluxes are of paramountimportance in understanding catchment behavior as well as biogeochemical and ecological status. The objectiveof this study is to quantify the spatio-temporal distribution of the exchange fluxes along the Cakit Stream(Nigde, Turkey) through coupling a set of geophysical techniques and in-stream measurements in a hierarchicalmanner. First, we conducted electromagnetic induction (EM) surveys over long reaches of the Cakit Stream topinpoint potential groundwater upwelling sections along the streambed. EM anomalies guided our focus to a 600meter-long reach of the stream. Along this selected reach, fiber-optic distributed temperature sensing system wasutilized to investigate top-of-the-streambed-temperature profiles at fine spatial and temporal scales. Furthermore,nested piezometers and vertical temperature profiles (using iButtons) were installed at three potential locations toinvestigate vertical hydraulic gradients and exchange fluxes. Water quality parameters were also measured alongthe reach in-stream and in the piezometers. Our results indicate that the downstream sections of the streambed arecharacterized by downwelling fluxes regardless of the season, whereas seasonal factors control the direction andmagnitude of the exchange fluxes along upstream sections. In this presentation we discuss our results in detail andhighlight the effect of streamflow discharge and streambed conditions on the performance of various techniquesutilized in this study.

A Multi-technique approach to determine temporal and spatial variability of groundwater-stream water exchange in Çakit stream, Niğde/Turkey Koruk, Kasımcan.; Yılmaz, Koray K.; Department of Geological Engineering (2019) Characterizing the spatio-temporal distribution of groundwater-surface water exchange fluxes are of paramount importance in understanding catchment behavior. The objective of this study is to quantify the spatio-temporal distribution of the exchange fluxes along the Çakıt Stream (Niğde, Turkey) through coupling a set of geophysical techniques and in-stream measurements in a hierarchical manner. First, geological and water quality information were combined at the regional scale to determine the focus area at...
A multi-technique approach to determine temporal and spatial variability of groundwater-stream water exchange Koruk, Kasimcan; Yılmaz, Koray Kamil; Akyürek, Sevda Zuhal; Binley, Andrew (Wiley, 2020-04-03) Characterizing the spatio-temporal distribution of groundwater-surface water (GW-SW) exchange fluxes is of paramount importance in understanding catchment behavior. A wide range of field-based techniques are available for such characterization. The objective of this study is to quantify the spatio-temporal distribution of the exchange fluxes along the cakit stream (Nigde, Turkey) through coupling a set of geophysical techniques and in-stream measurements in a hierarchical manner. First, geological and water...
A laboratory study on the use of lime columns to improve expansive soils Özkan, İlyas; Çokça, Erdal; Department of Civil Engineering (2021-9-09) Expansive soils are well-known for their cyclic shrink-swell behavior due to seasonal moisture changes. These cyclic movements of expansive soils are due to physicochemical changes at the particle level that are dependent on mineralogical composition of these soils. The soil depths susceptible to moisture changes are known as active depths and based on previous studies vary from shallow to deep depths. Movements from these depths reflect to the surface leading to considerable deformation to overlying infras...
Assessment of the effect of mineralogy on the geotechnical parameters of clayey soils: A case study for the Orta County, Çankırı, Turkey Akgün, Haluk; Arslan Kelam, Arzu; Oner, Gokalp; Koçkar, Mustafa Kerem (2018-11-01) The purpose of this study is to investigate and relate the geotechnical parameters with the mineralogical properties of the Miocene and Plio-Quaternary (Pliocene to Quaternary) lacustrine and fluvial sediments, particularly clayey soils in the Orta County, cankiri. The study area is located about 110 km northeast of Ankara which is the capital city of the Republic of Turkey and Orta is a small county of cankiri. The study area is a structural depression in the northern part of the Orta plain which is filled...
Characterization of Groundwater and Surface Water Interactions Along Kirmir Stream Using Field Measurements and Thermal Remote Sensing Varlı, Dilge; Yılmaz, Koray Kamil; Süzen, Mehmet Lütfi (null; 2015-04-10) he exchange processes between surface water and groundwater have recently received attention due to the important implications on the basin-scale water management as well as biogeochemical and ecological status of watersheds. We investigated the exchange processes between Kirmir Stream - a controlled stream nearby the city of Ankara, Turkey - and groundwater using a hierarchical multi-scale approach incorporating catchment physical characteristics (geology, geomorphology, DEM etc.), water quality field para...
