dc.description.abstractDetermining water level changes in lakes is significant for sustainable water supply planning, flood control, water resource management, and economic development with ecosystem sustainability. Trend analysis is a commonly used tool for detecting changes in hydrologic time series of quantities such as lake level, precipitation and temperature. Trend analysis of meteorological variables is very important for assessing the long-term changes in lake levels. This study examines long-term changes in the lakes in the Central Anatolia region of Turkey. Kızören and Timraş sinkhole lakes and Lakes Tuz and Beyşehir are some of the lakes located in this region. Changes in these lakes were examined along with changes in precipitation trends and human effects. The precipitation stations representing these lakes were determined using Thiessen polygons. In this study, the well-known nonparametric Mann–Kendall trend test (MK) was used. Before performing trend analysis, homogeneity and autocorrelation tests were applied for the time series. The standard normal homogeneity test (SNHT) was used to evaluate homogeneity. Trend analysis was performed before and after the change points the inhomogeneous series for the period of the homogeneous series. In addition, the modified Mann–Kendall method (MMK) was performed to examine the strong autocorrelations seen in the entire time series. The results showed that precipitation station data are homogeneous and lake levels are inhomogeneous. Trend analysis was performed by determining the change points for the inhomogeneous lakes. There were no significant trends after the change points for the Lake Tuz and Timraş sinkhole lake. These results are supported by the insignificant trends in precipitation stations. Contrary to the trend analysis results, the increase in the water level of Beyşehir Lake was determined to increment from the water transferred to the lake. The decrease in the water level of Kızören sinkhole was a result of anthropogenic effect rather than precipitation. The results confirm that lake levels have been affected by precipitation trends and anthropogenic effects.en_US
