Abstract

Several lakes, rivers and Karst springs in South-Western Turkey have been studied in detail using the natural tritium, deuterium and oxygen-18 contents of the waters. Stable isotopes have shown the relation between inland lakes and coastal springs. The tritium content of springs gives valuable information on the transit time of water between time of recharge and sampling, and the time structure of water in the Karst reservoir. Environmental isotopes also show the major components of flow in the Karst which consist of a seasonal flow through solution channels and a much slower movement through the base Karst reservoir.
