Abstract
In this study, it was aimed to reveal the importance of microbiological factors in water quality determination studies based on fuzzy logic and to determine the usability of management in water quality. Six critical parameters for water quality detection are included. In the study of Avsar [1], only bacteriological data were emphasized, and no information was obtained about quantitative data on water quality. It was found that fecal coliform was more effective on the changes in water quality compared to fecal coliform and temperature based fuzzy quality indexes. When the fuzzy quality values were determined, the effect of seasonal changes did not appear to be high, but the change in pH and coliform values affected the quality. This showed that water quality assessment would not be accurate without microbiological data. As a result, the proposed data can be considered accurate and reliable, so we recommend that microbiological data should be included in the evaluation of water quality determination studies. In addition, we can say that fuzzy logic technique will be a comprehensive and reliable technique in the assessment of the quality of the streams that are used in irrigation, fishing and recreational areas.
