We examined male employees at a pulp and paper mill in Arkhangelsk to define risk groups based on frequency of deviations in the main endocrine parameters, i.e. cortisol, thyroxin (Т4), thriiodothyronine (Т3), insulin, somatotropin (STH) and tiroxin-binding globulin (TBG). The control was males who had not worked in the extreme production environment. The investigation stated functional changes in the endocrine system of the PPM employees. These include an exaggerated activity of the pancreas, increased STH production, and misbalance in thyroid hormones with increased levels of Т4 and decreased Т3. Contributing factors were age and work experience, as well as place of residence prior to the employment. Groups of the risk to develop de-adaptive states are 22–25 y.o. people with increased cortisol and decreased STH; 36–50 y.o. people with increased Т4, insulin and STH, and low Т3; people with work experience of 11–15 yrs. and high levels of cortisol, Т4 and somatotropin; people with work experience more than 16 yrs. with high levels of insulin, STH and low Т3level; employees migrated from south regions of this country.

The most promising method of root supply in space greenhouses (SG) operating in microgravity is porous membranes together with a capillary-porous salt-saturated artificial soil (AS). AS is a critical consumable that cannot be recycled in space missions. One of the options for increasing the specific harvest of cultures with extended period of commercial vegetation, carrot as an example, can co-cropping with fast-growing greens at the beginning of cultivation. Purpose of this work is experimental testing a technology of co-cropping carrot and leaf vegetables to see whether it will and better the AS efficiency. In a series of 3 experiments carrots were cultivated under a lighting unit with red and white LEDs (PFD in the range of 300 to 600 µmol(m2•s) in root modules stuffed with granular or fiber AS. Co-cultures were lettuce, Japanese turnip and basil. It was demonstrated that PFD at 450 – 550 µmol(m2•s) and water potential in the root zone at [(–0.5) – (–0.8) kPa] are favorable to the carrot and lie within the ranges recommended for cultivation of leaf vegetables in space greenhouses. No negative allelopathic effect was noted during carrot co-cropping with lettuce or Japanese turnip. Carrot cultivation with the Japanese turnip saved the specific, per a crop biomass unit, energy expenditure for lighting. Co-cropping with the Japanese turnip reduced the specific AS expenditure about 4 times; co-cropping with the lettuce reduced AS expenditure in 2.5 times.

Authors: Masdeu Carme , de los Santos Jesús M. , Palacios Francisco , Alonso Concepcion
Published: September 2023

Nitrogenated heterocycles take part in the structure of many natural products
and agents with important biological activity, such as antiviral, antibiotic and antitumor
drugs. For this reason, heterocyclic compounds are one of the most desired synthetic
targets nowadays. In this review work, the literature related to the preparation of
polyheterocyclic compounds by using the intramolecular Povarov reaction will be
collected. The Povarov reaction is a process in which aromatic amines, carbonyl
compounds and olefins or acetylenes participate to give rise to the formation of the
nitrogenated compounds. Then, intramolecular Povarov reactions to carry out these
syntheses are described according to the key processes involved; catalytic reactions
with transition metals will be included discussing the reaction mechanisms and
examining the effect of catalysts and solvents in the preparation of the products, thus
reflecting the synthetic potential of this strategy. Moreover, applications of prepared
compounds will also be considered.
Preformulation: Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient-Excipient Compatibility Studies
Authors: Segall Adriana
Published: September 2023

A relevant area of research in the preformulation phase for the development
of new dosages is active pharmaceutical ingredient (API)-excipient compatibility. The
possibilities of chemical and physical interaction of API and the excipients may affect
how efficient and effective it is, while displaying an impact on the nature, stability and
availability of API. The most common signs of deterioration of an API are changes in
the color, taste, odor, polymorphic form, or crystallization (pharmaceutical
incompatibility). These changes arise from chemical reactions with the excipient,
leading to degradation of the API. The active components are usually more stable than
solid dosage forms, and although testing the compatibility of API-excipients is
essential, no protocol has yet been accepted to evaluate their interactions. Fourier
Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC),
Isothermal Stress Testing-High Performance Liquid Chromatography (IST-HPLC), Hot
Stage Microscopy (HSM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Solid state Nuclear
Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (ssNMR) and Power X-ray Diffraction (PXRD) are
commonly used as screening techniques for assessing the compatibility of an active
pharmaceutical ingredient (API) with some currently employed excipients. The
potential physical and chemical interactions between drugs and excipients can affect
the chemical nature, the stability and bioavailability of drugs and, consequently, their
therapeutic efficacy and safety. Once the solid-state reactions of a pharmaceutical
system are understood, the necessary steps can be taken to avoid reactivity and improve
the stability of drug substances and products. In this chapter, we summarize the
techniques to investigate the compatibility between APIs and excipients.
Steric Exclusion Chromatography (including the Chromatography of Polymers in an Aqueous Solution)
Authors: Rinaudo Marguerite
Published: September 2023

This chapter describes the different difficulties encountered when studying a new polymer by GPC or SEC. This technique is known as liquid chromatography in which a soluble polymer is eluted through a porous gel filling a column. The different molecular weights are separated following their hydrodynamic volumes compared with the pore diameters. It appeared in the sixties firstly in an aqueous medium. The main factors playing a role in the elution through the porous support are examined. Especially, the SEC behaviour of water-soluble polymers is discussed introducing the behaviour in aqueous medium where H bonds and hydrophobic interactions are important. Examples of dextrans and neutral oligosaccharides, rich in -OH groups are discussed showing that weak adsorption increases the elution volumes when eluted in water. Other important interactions concern the electrostatic interactions causing exclusion from the gels and changes in the polyelectrolyte conformation. Elution with monovalent electrolytes (NaNO3 or NaOAc) around 0.1M is recommended. SEC of charged oligosaccharides, hyaluronan, pectins and chitosan are briefly described. Fortunately, new equipment appeared progressively and especially in 1983 the multiangle laser light scattering (MALLS) was introduced, which is probably the most useful detector to associate with the differential refractometer. In that case, Mw is obtained independently of the elution volume as soon as there are no aggregates and good solubility of the polymer tested in the solvent selected. To conclude, it is necessary to insist on the quality of the polymeric solution avoiding the presence of aggregates which may be identified by dynamic light scattering (DLS). In their presence, even after filtration on 0.2 µm pore membrane, the SLS overestimates the Mw.

Authors: Polkowski Zdzislaw , Prakash Mishra Jyoti , Kumar Mishra Sambit
Published: September 2023

In the present situation, with the enhancement of virtualization techniques, it
is very essential to keep track of accumulated large-scaled heterogeneous data in every
respect. In addition to that, it is also necessary to prioritize the processing mechanisms
when being linked with clustered data. Sometimes it has been observed that the large
scaled datasets are too complex and therefore, the normal computation mechanisms are
not sufficient or adequate for the specific applications. But it is highly required to
observe the significance of each individual dataset and focus on the responses being
accumulated from other aspects to make a suitable decision and generation of efficient
analytical clustered data. The main aim of such applications is to apply the clustering
gaining merits from evolutionary computation to process the large-scaled data and
based on optimality, the performance of datasets can be measured.

plays an important role in many synthetic procedures, such as biodiesel production,
CO2
reduction, O2 evolution reaction, etc. Numerous electrocatalytic kinetic
characteristics are discussed to fairly assess the efficiency of electrocatalysts, including
overpotential (η), exchange current density (i0
) and Tafel slope (b). These variables are
essential and provide valuable insight into the electrochemical reaction's process. Due
to this, herein, we give a brief overview of these kinetic characteristics along with a

Automated Processes and Systems
Authors: Akande Saheed , Adeyemi Oke Wasiu , Aremu Babajide Fawaz
Published: September 2023

In this chapter, the concepts of automated processes and systems including
the elements of system automation are explained. In process automation, digital
technologies are often used to automate complex manufacturing or business processes.
This includes the use of the system to perform tasks and the integration of software,
information and communication technology, data acquisition, and storage sub-systems.
A system may go through several processes that are time sensitive and repetitive before
obtaining the final output. Process automation prevents variation and bottlenecks
associated with these processes such as errors, and data loss while improving speed and
communication among other sub-systems. System automation is a subset of Mechatronics engineering that involves the integration of a sensing system, control
mechanisms, and drive system (actuators). The three basic elements of an automation
system that must be synergized include: the power system, the program of instructions
or codes to direct the process, and the control mechanism to actuate the instructions.
This chapter also delves into the systems operations, programming and classes of
automated systems. The two major classes of the control system; open and closed loop
control systems otherwise known as the non-feedback and feedback control systems
respectively are discussed including their designs. The Proportional Integral Derivative
(PID) controllers will continue to be important in several industrial applications
because they utilize a control loop feedback mechanism to control process variables
and are highly stable and accurate in achieving control tasks.

Published: September 2023

The global emission regulations and fossil fuel pollution control have
necessitated the need to study the effect of injector fuel splitting time and flow rate on
engine performance. To achieve this, an automated prototyped 4-cylinder injector
engine was developed to replicate the real-time activities of the injector system in the
internal combustion (IC) engine. Arduino Nano open-source platform was used to
integrate the various component parts such as the fuel injector, fuel tank, submersible
fuel pump injector rail, transparent plastic chamber, flexible hose, Engine Control Unit
(ECU), connecting wires, frame, Liquid Crystal Display (LCD), switch button, relay
module, current sensor, potentiometer, Arduino nano, and pressure sensor that were
used for the design experiment. Programmable circuit board microcontroller, Arduino
(Integrated Development Environment) IDE, and C++ coding language were used to
achieve the smart regulations of the injector operation system to replicate the real-time
situation when the engine is running. This was achieved by incorporating Arduino
microcontroller ATMEGA328, C++, and Arduino IDE software. The Arduino
programming initiates the injection system and measures the injection output
parameters. The system was designed to vary the splitting time delay between the four
injectors and to measure the flow rate of the fuel injected. The experimental study
showed that at a very high splitting time delay, the amount of fuel injected is more than
the fuel injected at a relatively low splitting time delay with an average flow rate of
4.36 l/min at 50 microseconds and 0.02 l/min at 500 microseconds for high and low
splitting time, respectively. This study will help the stakeholders in the automotive
industry to virtualize the invisible situation of the fuel injector in real-time performance
in the engine.

Published: September 2023

Growing need for energy for sustaining increasing population has resulted in
overexploitation of natural resources and over use of fossil fuel-based energy sources
(coal, oil and gas). The consumption of non–renewable resources such as coal,
petroleum and natural gas has increased tremendously resulting in environmental
problems and climatic changes. Emission of greenhouse gases and other environmental
concerns have increased. The decline in the quantity of non-renewable resources has
generated the search of alternate energy sources. Switch to alternate sources of energy
and fuel can be a sustainable option to this problem. Solar, tidal, geothermal, wind are
some of the renewable sources of energy that are being focused to curtail the energy
crisis and ensure sustainability for environment. A framework based on fulfilling the
SDGs need to be developed which can contribute for more profitable, responsible path
of economic growth and development.

Wastewater contamination is increasing day by day because of increase in
industrial operations and anthropogenic activities. Wastewater is a by product of
industrial and domestic operations which is directly disposed into the environment and
contain large amount of toxic materials harmful for human, animals as well as
environment. Wastewater coming from industries is highly contaminated hence its
recovery is a major concern. Developing countries and less developed countries
generate large amount of wastewater in comparison to developed countries.
Biotechnology provides best solution to get rid of this problem. Different
technique/methods such as use of activated sludge, trickling filters, biosorption, bioaccumulation, use of nanoparticles play a major role in treatment of water. Role of
microorganisms via microbial fuel cells and membrane biofilm bioreactors have also
been used for removing metals present in wastewater. This chapter aims to provide
complete information about biotechnological approaches for wastewater treatment in a
cost- effective manner along with complete removal of sludge and toxic compounds.

Authors: Dhir Bhupinder
Published: September 2023

Pollution and unsustainable use of natural resources such as land and soil
has resulted in their destruction. Restoration of degraded land and soil is essential for
maintenance of essential ecosystem services such as preservation of biodiversity,
nutrient/water cycling and meeting the food requirement for living beings.
Bioremediation has appeared as technology with high potential for restoring damaged
soil and degraded lands. Biotechnological techniques such as development of efficient
microbial consortia with an enhanced capacity to remove various contaminants from
soils and improvement in nutrient retention in soil have opened new prospects in
bioremediation with an aim to recover productive capacity of soil. The techniques such
as bioventing, bioaugumentation, biosparging have also proved useful in restoring
degraded and non-productive soils to a great extent. The biotechnological techniques,
thus can act as an ecofriendly method for remediation, restoration and reclamation of
degraded/damaged soils.

Published: September 2023

Modern agriculture is almost entirely reliant on the supply and utilization of agrochemicals, such as fertilizers, pesticides, and insecticides, to maintain and boost agriculture productivity. Heavy use of chemical fertilizers has resulted in numerous adverse effects on the environment and human health. Biofertilizers have emerged as an eco-friendly, inexpensive, and renewable alternative to restore, enhance, and maintain soil fertility, soil health, and crop yield. Biofertilizers are beneficial microbes, including plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria, mycorrhizal fungi, cyanobacteria, and their symbionts. Hence, the importance of biofertilizers in soil management practices for soil and crop sustainability needs to be highlighted in light of their multiple benefits, including augmenting nutrient availability in the rhizosphere, increasing nutrient uptake and recycling, supplementing soil water holding capacity, production of plant growth regulators, and soil reclamation. The challenges regarding the large-scale utilization of biofertilizers need to be emphasized to achieve sustainability in agricultural soils.

The presence of microplastics (MPs) throughout the world causes a serious
threat to the functionality and vigor of the ecosystem, which is present in almost all
habitats, such as in aquatic, atmospheric and terrestrial habitats, and is also found in
human consumables. Recently it has been found that MPs have entered the human
body through the food chain from terrestrial agriculture. Migration and retention of
MPs in the soil are controlled by the interaction between MPs and various
environmental factors. There is an immense need in real-world environments to
understand the migration properties and key mechanisms of MPs. Various organisms
such as plants, animals, different microorganisms present in the soil, etc. are impacted
by the presence of toxic MPs in the environment. Therefore, to ensure food safety and
sustainable agriculture, MPs should be treated as a future threat and attention should be
given to understand the mechanisms of transport and ecotoxicological effects of
contaminants released from MPs. The aim of the present chapter is to emphasize the
impact of MPs on various organisms present in the ecosystem and their interaction with
other contaminants.

An Artificial Intelligence Integrated Irrigation System: A Smart Approach
Authors: Mishra Vibhooti Narayan , Singh Divya Pratap , Dwivedi Radheshyam
Published: September 2023

The farming sector is considered the backbone of the Indian economy. The
demand for water is continuously increasing with rising population density. Water is
frequently wasted on the land due to unscientific irrigation techniques and
unpredictable weather conditions. The efficiency of irrigation networks is challenged
by the extremely variable and farmer-dependent irrigation water demand. Each farm's
irrigation intensity is influenced by both accurate and inaccurate variables, as well as
the farmer's behaviour. Accurate and inaccurate variables include soil moisture, crop’s
water requirement, and climate conditions. An auto solar-powered smart irrigation
system enables users to accurately time watering cycles by tracking the soil moisture at
numerous sites across the field. This system also brings down the utilization of grid
power to save electricity as per the energy crisis for Indian farmers. The objective of
our work is to use an automated watering system to reduce the farmer's manual
involvement in the field at an effective cost. The artificial intelligence (AI) system is
based on sensing a control mechanism with required correction for the maximum
yielding of irrigation. It also optimizes the water requirement of a variety of crops. A
more accessible and more affordable solution to this issue is provided by the present
work. The conventional methods of irrigation used in India are sprinklers and flood type systems. A large amount of water gets wasted, and crops are destroyed due to the
uneven slopes of the field. These problems can be resolved by incorporating an
intelligent automated irrigation system with an AI.

Linguïstiek en het brein : theoretische, experimentele en klinische inzichten
Authors: Jonkers Roel
Published: September 2023

Oratie uitgesproken door prof. dr. Roel Jonkers op 20 oktober 2023 bij de aanvaarding van het ambt van hoogleraar Neurolinguïstiek aan de Faculteit Letteren van de Rijksuniversiteit Groningen. De neurolinguïstiek brengt kennis uit de taalwetenschappen, de psychologie en de neurowetenschappen samen, met als uitgangspunt de taal. Daarbij gaat het om het spreken, begrijpen, lezen en schrijven van taal, op zowel woord- als zinsniveau. De kennis van taal richt zich hierbij op drie aspecten van de taalkunde: we bestuderen de losse klanken van taal via de fonologie, de woorden via de semantiek en de zinsbouw via de syntaxis. Wat we willen weten is hoe deze onderdelen van de taalkunde gerepresenteerd liggen in ons brein en hoe de processen van klank-, woord- en zinsproductie in het brein in hun werk gaan. Om meer over deze processen te weten te komen hebben we twee methodes tot onze beschikking. We kunnen technieken gebruiken, zoals EEG, TMS of EMA, maar een andere belangrijke bron van informatie vormt de taalpathologie. Kinderen en volwassenen met taal- en spraakstoornissen als gevolg van hersenletsel, zoals bij afasie of tumoren of bij volwassenen met ziektes, als de ziekte van Parkinson of dementie, kinderen met taalontwikkelingsstoornissen of dyslexie: hun taal- en spraakgebruik geeft inzicht in de werking van ons brein. Wij doen onderzoek allereerst vanuit een wetenschappelijk oogpunt. Theorievorming over taal- en spraakverwerkingsprocessen kan niet zonder de input van de neurolinguïstiek. Maar natuurlijk is er een tweede belangrijke doel. Op basis van de kennis die we opdoen zijn we in staat om te komen tot een verbetering van de diagnostiek en behandeling van taal- en spraakstoornissen. In zijn oratie zal Roel Jonkers op basis van recent en ongepubliceerd onderzoek naar de fonologische, semantische en syntactische verwerking van taal, maar ook naar de stoornissen die in deze verwerking kunnen optreden, laten zien wat we toegevoegd hebben en hopen toe te voegen aan de kennis over ons brein en over de betreffende stoornissen.

Yerleşim birimlerinin içme, kullanma ve endüstri suyu ihtiyaçlarının doğru saptanması için, yerleşim biriminin nüfusu, sosyo-ekonomik yapısı ve proje hedef yılında bunların ne şekil alacağı doğru tahmin edilmelidir. Su ihtiyaçları, proje sahasına götürülecek hizmeti boyutlandıracak temel unsurların başında gelmektedir. Gelecekteki su tüketimi projeksiyonları için, mevcut su tüketimini doğru tespit etmek amacıyla detaylı bir araştırma yapılmalıdır. Bu durumda, su tüketimini etkilediği kabul edilen faktörler ile yerleşim birimindeki özel şartlar arasındaki korelasyonlar göz önüne alınarak gelecekteki su tüketim değerleri tahmin edilmelidir. Bu araştırmada, Kilis’te konutsal su tüketimini etkileyen faktörler incelenmiştir. Bu amaçla İl’de 228 abone ile yüz yüze görüşülerek mülakat (anket) çalışması yapılmıştır. Anket çalışması İl’in sosyo-ekonomik yapısına göre belirlenen abonelere uygulanmış olup, elde edilen sonuçlar Stepwise Yöntemi ve Regresyon Analizinde, kişi başına günlük su tüketimi bağımlı değişken ve su tüketimini etkileyen faktörler bağımsız değişken kabul edilerek, su tüketim sonuçları bulunmuştur. Bu sonuçlardan, İl’in gelecekteki su ihtiyacının tahmininde kullanılabilecek y=ax2+bx+c regresyon denklemleri elde edilmiştir.

Yapılara giren enerjinin belirlenmesi enerji esaslı deprem mühendisliğinin en temel konusudur. Yer hareketi esnasında yapıya giren enerji histeretik enerji, kinetik enerji, elastik şekil değiştirme enerjisi ve sönümleme enerjisinin toplamını oluşturmaktadır. Enerjiye dayalı tasarımda yer hareketi ile elde edilen enerji talebinin yapının enerji tüketme kapasitesinden daha düşük olması gerekmektedir. Bu yüzden yapıya giren enerjinin gerçekçi olarak belirlenmesi önem taşımaktadır. Bu çalışmada, farklı tasarım spektrumlarının sisteme giren enerji taleplerine etkisinin değerlendirilmesi amacıyla, tek serbestlik dereceli (TSD) sistemlerin doğrusal olmayan dinamik analizleri yapılmıştır. Bu amaçla toplamda 72 farklı TSD sistem dikkate alınmıştır. Farklı spektrumların etkisini incelemek amacıyla Türkiye’de bulunan 4 farklı konum ve bu konumlar ile uyumlu 3 farklı yerel zemin sınıfı dikkate alınmıştır. 12 farklı tasarım spektrumunun her biri ile uyumlu 4 farklı ivme kaydı seti elde edilmiş, toplamda ise 48 adet ivme kaydı seti doğrusal olmayan dinamik analizler için kullanılmıştır. Analiz sonuçlarında maksimum giren enerji taleplerinin ortalaması ile bu taleplere ait saçılımlar karşılaştırılmıştır. Analiz sonuçları incelendiğinde; farklı düzeyde tasarım spektrumu dikkate alındığında sisteme giren enerji taleplerinin de değiştiği görülmüştür. Ayrıca aynı tasarım spektrumu ile uyumlu farklı ivme setlerinden elde edilen maksimum giren enerji taleplerinin ortalaması birbirlerine yakındır. Son olarak, giren enerji taleplerinin set içerisindeki saçılımlarının yüksek olduğu ve buna karşılık setler arası saçılımın ise düşük olduğu görülmüştür.

The contents of the shed opening frames used in the weaving machines and the pneumatic connections used in the dobby mechanisms of the shedding cost were made. As a result of the weaving, a new dobby with low cost, easy to manufacture and maintain was designed and produced in weaving machines. In particular, you can run a system that can manufacture fabrics with minimized tensions in warp threads. After executing the cam and tracking design, the drive, select, and motion acquisition to the frames were fabricated and assembled. After seeing the precise adjustments of the mechanisms, they were automatically operated at different speeds. Optimum results have been achieved in the incoming tension values in the warp with the new generation pneu-mechanical dobby machine, which is one of the shedding devices used to create sheds in Bizim Study weaving machines and provides the movements of frames for this purpose. The average warp tension during the weaving process was 34.6 cN.

In this work, the design of a high-performance single-stage Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) for GSM applications is taken into consideration. LNA design is one of the key stages of a wireless communication system due to its dominance over the whole system's noise figure performance. Although it is possible to achieve a very high gain and low noise figure with the usage of multi-stage transistors, such designs would also have a high complexity and manufacturing cost. The main aim of this work is to propose a single transistor LNA design for GSM application with a gain level of 14.3 dB, return loss level of less than 15 dB, and noise figure of 1.8 dB over the operation band of 820-980 MHz. the optimal design variables of the model is obtained via Grey Wolf optimization procedure.

Apricot kernel is a byproduct of fruit processing that is used for nuts but has a high economic value due to its high oil content. The aim of this research was to compare the green extraction techniques microwave-assisted extraction (MAE) and ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) with the traditional Soxhlet extraction method (SXHE). Time (min), amplitude (%), and temperature (°C) in the UAE method, power (W) and, time (min) in the MAE method, and time (min) in the SXHE method were used as oil extraction process parameters. The time required to achieve the oil yield similar to SXHE (43.65%) is 79% and 83% less in UAE and MAE methods, respectively. Extraction methods are ranked as UAE>MAE>SXHE when they are compared in terms of low free fatty acid (FFA), peroxide value (PV), and Delta-K, high antioxidant activity and total phenolic content (TPC), fatty acid composition, and accelerated shelf-life test (up to 20 days). However, after the 20th day of the shelf-life test, this ranking changes as UAE>SXHE>MAE. The UAE method had better results than MAE and SXHE methods due to same oil yield and higher functional oil content, especially at low extraction temperatures, and should be recommended for oil extraction from different kernels in the food industry.

Bu çalışmada Antalya havzasının önemli su kaynaklarından biri olan Karacaören-1 ve 2 Baraj Gölleri ve çevresindeki meteorolojik kuraklık Standartlaştırılmış Yağış İndeksi (SYİ) yöntemi ile belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Isparta ve Antalya DM istasyonlarında ölçülen yağış verileri kullanılmış ve bölge için kuraklık sınıflamaları yapılmıştır. Isparta DMİ verilerine göre bölgede 94 yıl içerisinde sadece 1 yıl (1969) “Aşırı Nemli”, %4.26 “Orta Derecede Kurak”, %6.38 “Şiddetli Kurak” ve %4.26 “Aşırı Kurak” geçmiştir. Antalya DMİ verilerine göre ise 93 yılın %2.15’i “Aşırı Nemli”, %11.83 “Orta Derecede Kurak”, %2.15 “Şiddetli Kurak” ve %3.22 “Aşırı Kurak” olarak geçmiştir. Her iki meteoroloji istasyonundaki kuraklık durumu birlikte değerlendirildiğinde kuraklığın farklı şiddetlerde benzer dönemlerde etkisini gösterdiği görülmüştür. Ayrıca kurak dönemlerdeki Karacaören-1 ve 2 Baraj Göllerinin seviye ve hacim değişiklikleri incelenmiştir. Buna göre Karacaören-1 Baraj gölü seviye, hacim ve kuraklık analiz sonuçları birlikte değerlendirildiğinde Isparta ve Antalya DM istasyonları verilerinden hazırlanan kuraklık analizleri ile Karacaören-1 Baraj Gölü seviye ve hacim değişikliklerinde uyumluluk olduğu gözlenmiştir. Özellikle her iki istasyonda tespit edilen 1995, 2000-2003 yılları arası ile 2016-2022 yılları arasında gözlemlenen kuraklıklarda Karacaören-1 Baraj Gölü seviye ve hacimlerinde de düşüşler olduğu görülmüştür. Karacaören-2 Baraj Gölünde ise 2006-2007 yıllarındaki yoğun yağışlara bağlı olarak baraj göl seviyesinde dikkat çeken bir artış belirlenmiştir.
