dc.description.abstractThe study called Erosion and Precautions in Altinapa Dam Basin (Konya) aims to reveal the relationship between erosion and the geographical factors that cause the erosion in the region. The Altinapa Dam Basin is located in the west of the city center of Konya. In Altinapa Dam Basin plateau and valley basin plains form the main relief. In the basin, the Upper Miosen-Pliosen old clayed limestones, marls, and tuffs occupy a large area. The semi-arid climate, in which the spring and autumn rains are effective, is seen in the research area. The vegetation cover is poor. Generally, step formations, which can withstand more heat and drought, are more common. Ulucay river and river's reaches have been influential in shaping the basin. Besides the natural geographical features of the Altinapa Dam Basin, wrong land use, overgrazing, neglect such as forest degradation have been effective in the erosion and severity of erosion. Water erosion and its types are observed in the area. In the eastern, northern and southern parts of the research area, there is a wide area that is affected by severe and very severe erosion. The mild to moderate severe erosion has been effective on the slopes of the valley basin with different elevations. The negativity of the natural and human conditions in the Altinapa Dam Basin caused continuation of the erosion. One of the measures that can be taken in this regard is the planting measures and raising the awareness of the local people about the land use.en_US
