| dc.description.abstract | Research area is located 8 km southeast of Cihanbeyli district. The travertine cones located in the area are firstly examined by foreign scientists in1937. Although many scientists examined them after that, they were extensively examined by Oguz Erol in 1968. Erol identified 63 travertine cones, defined their formation, some of their features including morphometric features and mapped them. This study aims to find out what has changed in fifty years' time and re-examine the area by using today's technological facilities. It is found that 5 of the 63 cones are disappeared completely, 7 of them are damaged heavily 11 of them are damaged mildly. It is observed that this destruction is caused by human factors rather than natural factors. Moreover, some of the cones don't have any water today. Furthermore, 20 dolines relating to cones directly or indirectly are classified as subsidence dolines, collapse dolines and caprock dolines. The Bolluk lake travertine cones which have interesting features in terms of geological and geomorphological factors are being destroyed. In this context, it is necessary to be more sensitive about the protection of the zone. | en_US |
