When the analysis results of samples taken between 2006 and 2009 were compared, it was determined that the amount of pollution increased in time. Moreover, the seasonal variations of ground water quality criterions were determined and the precautions that should be taken to minimize this pollution were discussed.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessquality of groundwaterseasonal variationAksarayenvironmental pollutionArticle213659666Q3WOS:000304430500016Q4
