dc.description.abstractThe average pattern of weather, called climate, usually stays pretty much the same for centuries if it is left to itself. However, the earth is not being left alone. There is now very strong evidence that significant global warming can't be explained by natural causes alone. Humans are changing the climate by their actions, especially through emissions of greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide, which artificially warm the atmosphere of the earth. Scientific studies showed that climate change is fact not a myth or speculation. The meteorology of Konya Closed Basin which covers pretty large area in central Turkey has been analyzed in this paper. Required data for the analyses acquired from the sixteen meteorological stations located in Konya Closed Basin for the period of 1975-2008. The meteorological variables such as pressure, temperature, precipitation, humidity and wind velocity are selected to explain basin's meteorology in detail. Especially analyses of temperature and precipitation data are indicator to understand global warming effects. Another aim of this study is to show the shrinkage of Tuz (Salt) Lake which is situated in north part of Konya Closed Basin. Water quantity is getting low day by day and the surface of Tuz Lake shrinks gradually.en_US
