Abstract

Abstract Describes the geology and ground-water possibilities of four alluvial plain areas in Turkey, two of which are located along the Syrian border, the other two on the Anatolian plateau. The plain areas of the Syrian border region are composed of Cretaceous and Tertiary marine sediments capped by Quaternary alluvium and, in places, volcanic flows. Water-bearing sequences of alternating permeable limestones and impermeable marls may be present. The ground-water possibilities of the plateau plains, composed of Tertiary lacustrine and volcanic beds capped by Quaternary alluvium and lava, are less favorable.
