Tatlısu Ekosistemlerinde Mikroplastik Kirliliği: Türkiye'den bir örnek çalışma

Öz

Mikroplastik kirliliği son yıllarda hızlı bir şekilde artış göstermiştir ve yeni ortaya çıkan tehditlerden biri olarak kabul edilmektedir. Ancak mikroplastik kirliliğinin sucul ekosistemlerdeki boyutları henüz tam olarak bilinmemektedir. Az sayıda mevcut olan çalışmanın büyük bir çoğunluğu denizel ekosistemlerde gerçekleştirilmiştir ve tatlı su alanında yapılan çalışma sayısı çok sınırlıdır. Bu çalışmada Türkiye tatlı su ekosistemlerinde mikroplastik kirliliğinin detaylı olarak araştırıldığı ilk çalışmadır. Çalışmada Cevdet Dündar Göleti (Yozgat/Türkiye) yüzey suyundan alınan örneklerinde mikroplastik (<5 mm) kirliliği araştırılmıştır. 5 farklı istasyondan yüzeyden alınan su örnekleri (150 L) yoğunluğa bağlı ayırma yöntemi kullanılarak ayrıştırılmıştır. Partiküller hem görsel olarak hem spektrofotometrik (-Raman) yöntemler kullanılarak incelenmiştir. İstasyon ortalamalarına göre gölet suyunun 1m3’ünde ortalama 233 mikroplastik parçacığı bulunmaktadır. Mikroplastik kirliliğinin en fazla gözlemlendiği boyut aralığı 100-250 m (%56) dur. En yaygın gözlemlenen mikroplastik çeşidi ve rengi ise sırası ile fiber (%91) ve mavi (%36) renk olarak tespit edilmiştir. -Raman analiz sonuçlarına göre en yaygın gözlemlenen mikroplastik türevleri ise polipropilen (%50) ve polietilendir (%40). Nispeten insan etkisinin az olduğu çalışma alanında mikroplastik kirliliğinin gözlemlenmesi mikroplastik kirliliğinin varlığını ortaya çıkarmaktadır.
