Abstract

Abstract Surface water samples from the area of Munzur Stream in Türkiye (a Ramsar site) were evaluated for their suitability for irrigation and drinking purposes using different water quality indices. The human health risks were assessed as well. The study was conducted over a period of 24 months from January 2019 to December 2021 by taking samples from nine stations every month in order to determine the water quality of Munzur Stream, located in Tunceli. According to the results, Munzur Stream is in good condition in terms of the quality of drinking water and irrigation water. The concentrations of heavy metals such as Cu, Ni, Fe and Hg were high, though the water quality parameter according to Türkiye Ministry of Forestry and Water Affairs Surface Water Quality Regulations (TSWQR) was significantly lower than the permitted limits. In Munzur Stream, the irrigation water for all stations was reported to be excellent, good and suitable in terms of SAR, Na% and MH, respectively. The principal component analysis data formed the four principal components, explaining 98.22% of the total variance. The sources of pollution in this area include the rock types of the basin, soil erosion, domestic waste water discharge and agricultural flow of inorganic fertilisers.

用灌溉用水指数和Munzur河的可通行性评估重金属对健康的风险：以土耳其Ovacık地区（Ramsar遗址）为例

摘要使用不同的水质指数评估了土耳其Munzur Stream地区（拉姆萨尔地区）的地表水样本是否适合灌溉和饮用。还对人类健康风险进行了评估。这项研究在2019年1月至2021年12月的24个月内进行，每月从9个站点采集样本，以确定位于通塞利的Munzur溪的水质。结果表明，Munzur河的饮用水和灌溉水水质良好。铜、镍、铁和汞等重金属的浓度很高，尽管根据土耳其林业和水利部地表水质量条例（TSWQR）的水质参数明显低于允许的限值。据报道，在Munzur溪，所有站点的灌溉水在SAR、Na%和MH方面分别表现良好、良好和适宜。主成分分析数据构成了四个主成分，解释了98.22%的总方差。该地区的污染源包括盆地的岩石类型、土壤侵蚀、生活污水排放和无机肥料的农业流。
