Abstract
Serinyol alluvial fan, which is situated 17 km north of Antakya and edge of Antakya-Kahramanmaraş Graben, is corresponds to a field of anthropogenic degradational impacts deepening due to rapid increased population and urbanization during the last sixty years period. These adverse effects primarily must be accurately detected for dont’t reache to irreversible dimensions. For this purpose; problem areas have been introduced of the field in the framework of techniques such as field studies, morphometric measurements and satellite imagery supervised classification. In this context, the detected problems are collected in four main headings as land use, construction process, with uncontrolled sand pits, environmental pollution and waste management and summarized systematically. Finally has been found that degradational effects increasing in parallel with the population grows with risks which is threat in terms of flow Dynamics (flow velocity, flow depth and hydraulic energy etc.) and water quality.
