| In this study, the water quality of the pond was evaluated based on 10 physicochemical parameters and 7 heavy metals, and the results were discussed in accordance with SWQR (2016) and WHO (2021) standards. The measured parameters were generally found to be in compliance with both national and international guidelines. Among the heavy metals, only copper (Cu), with an average concentration of 7.64 µg/L, exceeded the SWQR (2016) threshold, while still remaining within the permissible limits of WHO (2021). Irrigation water indices indicated that the water is suitable for use in terms of SAR (1.80) and Na% (31.19), whereas PI (51.43) reflected medium quality, and MH (62.33) revealed a high magnesium hazard for irrigation purposes. Heavy metal pollution indices, HPI (10.70) and HEI (0.39), demonstrated that the pond water poses a low risk in terms of heavy metal contamination. According to the Piper diagram, the water was classified within the Ca²⁺–Mg²⁺–HCO₃⁻ facies, indicating that the hydrochemical characteristics of the pond are associated with carbonate-rich lithological formations. Overall, the findings suggest that while the pond water is suitable for irrigation, regular monitoring of magnesium accumulation and copper concentrations is essential to ensure its long-term and sustainable use. |
