| Özet |
| The over-extraction of groundwater for agricultural purposes in the Konya Closed Basin (KCB) has led to land subsidence and new cover collapse sinkholes (CCS) in regions like the Akgöl Wetland (AW), where such occurrences were previously absent. InSAR data from 2014 to 2023 indicate that the average annual subsidence in AW varies between 15 mm/year and 30 mm/year. Alarmingly, in specific locations, the cumulative subsidence has reached 230 mm over nine years. The significant subsidence observed in the southern region of the study area aligns with a fault line between limestone and alluvial deposits. Furthermore, several bedrock collapse sinkholes (BCS) are seen in the limestone south of the lake. The orientations and alignments of the long axes of these dolines are pointed towards the region where recent CCS has developed. This may suggest the existence of an ancient bedrock collapse … |
