【 摘 要 】

Buyuk Melen Watershed; provides drinking water from the Western Black Sea region to Istanbul province, which Large and Small Melen rivers, Asar Suyu, Ugur Suyu and Aksu rivers. Many settlement areas, fertilized agricultural lands, industrial plants and solid/liquid waste dumping areas are present in Melen watershed, causing substantial pollution problems. Melen watershed is at a serious risk of pollution that a lot of settlement areas, agricultural lands, industrial facilities, and solid and liquid waste. In this study, using the LANDSAT satellite data to monitor the status of this area on the potential of the region studied. In the watershed from the past to change of the 1987, 2001, 2006 and 2010 and also supported by satellite data. However, contaminants in the watershed discharges to the inner parts as shown in the satellite data have also been observed that the increase in pollution.
