Name, Last name:SEZEN, ACINAN Signature : iii ABSTRACT DETERMINATION OF RUNOFF COEFFICIENT OF BASINS BY USING GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEMS Acınan, Sezen M.S., Geodetic and Geographic Information Technologies Supervisor: Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nurünnisa Usul May 2008, 106 pages Turkey has very different geomorphologic, hydrologic and climatic conditions, so the runoff coefficient should be different from one basin to another. But only one constant value, which is 0.37, is being used for all the basins in Turkey. In this thesis, monthly, seasonal and annual runoff coefficients of 48 sub-basins in western and southern part of Anatolia are determined by using synchronous and average rainfall, runoff data of 26 year record period. Their temporal and spatial distributions are investigated. The relationship between the basin parameters and the runoff coefficient are also examined. Some of the basins have unrealistic large runoff coefficients, therefore excluded from the analyses. The basin boundaries and parameters are determined by using Geograhic Information System (GIS), and areal average precipitations are found by a program written in visual basic language that uses ArcObjects. The Box-Cox transformed data are used in regression analysis. There are a number of dams in the region, which affect the natural flow. Such streams are found and their sub-basins are not used in the analyses. The results revealed that there is not a strong the relationship between the basin parameters and annual and seasonal runoff coefficients for the whole region, but there are significant relations between them for some basins. Key words: Runoff Coefficient, Basin Parameters, Geographic Information System (GIS), Box-Cox Transformation, Regression Analysis. iv ÖZ HAVZALARIN AKI Ş KATSAYILARININ CO ĞRAF İ B İLG İ S İSTEMLER İ YARDIMIYLA BULUNMASI Acınan, Sezen Y. Lisans, Jeodezi ve Co ğrafi Bilgi Teknolojileri Tez Yöneticisi: Doç. Dr. Nurünnisa Usul Mayıs 2008, 106 sayfa Türkiye jeolojik, hidrolojik ve iklimsel açıdan çok farklı koşullara sahiptir. Bu nedenle akı ş katsayıları havzadan havzaya de ğişim göstermelidir. Fakat Türkiye’nin tüm havzalarındaki akı ş katsayıları için 0.37 olan bir de ğer kullanılmaktadır. Bu tezde, Batı ve Güney Anadolu’daki 48 alt havzanın aylık, mevsimlik ve yıllık akı ş katsayıları eş zamanlı ve 26 yıl ortalaması olan akım ve ya ğış verileri kullanılarak bulunmu ştur. Bunların zamansal ve konumsal da ğılımları incelenir ve havza parametreleriyle aralarındaki ili şkiler ara ştırılmı ştır. Bazı havzaların akı ş katsayıları gerçe ğe aykırı olarak büyük oldu ğundan bu havzalar analizlerden çıkarılmı ştır. Havza sınırları ve parametreleri Co ğrafi Bilgi Sistemleri (CBS) yardımıyla çıkartılmı ş ve havzaların alansal ortalama ya ğışları ArcObject içinde visual basic programlama dili kullanarak yazılan bir program yardımıyla bulunmu ştur. Box-Cox ile dönü ştürülmü ş veriler regresyon analizlerinde kullanılmı ştır. Bölgede do ğal akımı etkileyen çok sayıda baraj vardır. Üzerinde barajların oldu ğu akarsular bulunup, havzaları analizlere katılmamı ştır. Sonuçlar, tüm çalı şma alanında yıllık ve mevsimlik akı ş katsayıları ile havza parametreleri arasında çok güçlü bir ili şkinin bulunmadı ğını, fakat bazı havzalarda ise bu ili şkinin önemli oldu ğunu göstermektedir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Akı ş Katsayısı, Havza Parametreleri, Cografi Bilgi Sistemleri (CBS), Box-Cox Dönü şümü, Regresyon Analizi. v To My Family vi ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I express my deepest gratitude to Assoc.

Data Collection Survey on Promotion of Earthquake Resilient Building Final Report Proposed Target Area Data Collection Survey on Promotion of Earthquake Resilient Building Final Report Executive Summary 1. Background and Purpose 1.1. Background Turkey is prone to earthquakes, being located in the Anatolian peninsula where the Eurasian Plate, African Plate and Arabic Plate meet. The Government of Turkey has been putting efforts into promoting earthquake-resilient buildings. The continuous cooperation between Japan and Turkey for Disaster Risk Reduction was confirmed at the Japan-Turkey summit meeting in September 2018, and further endorsed by “The Japan-Turkey Memorandum on Disaster Risk Reduction Cooperation” signed on December 27, 2018. Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) performed the “Data Collection Survey for Disaster-Resilient Urban Planning in Turkey” from September 2013 to May 2014, which proposes the concept of developing resilient cities in Turkey. The survey came with the conclusion that public buildings and facilities – such as hospitals and schools – which play important roles during emergency situations should have sufficient seismic capacity required for their purpose. Following the previous survey, JICA started the Data Collection Survey on the Promotion of Earthquake-Resilient Buildings (hereinafter referred to as “the Survey”). 1.2.

  • In Appreciation…
    In Appreciation… One of the outstanding examples of success created through the cooperation of industrial establishments and non-governmental organizations in our country is the solidarity achieved between Philip Morris/Sabancı, The Aegean Foundation for Economic Development and The Association of Aegean Industrialists and Businessmen. Within the framework of the above mentioned cooperation, we launched the program entitled “The EU Training for the Aegean Opinion Leaders” as of 2005 and closely followed the developments related to the European Union Integration processes in the cities of Afyonkarahisar, Aydın, Balıkesir, Çanakkale, Denizli, İzmir, Kütahya, Manisa, Muğla and Uşak; realized impact analysis on the basis of sectors and shared our knowledge in seminars in which 3500 persons participated and also at “round-table” meetings. This book in your hands now, is another outcome of our cooperation. It is an end- product of the project on which The Aegean Foundation for Economic Development (EGEV) has been working since 2007. In this study, which we believe is a valuable reference source for the Aegean Region; Philip Morris / Sabancı, once again, in proof of its strong awareness of social responsibility, has not left us alone. On behalf of The Aegean Foundation for Economic Development (EGEV), we hereby express our boundless thanks and appreciation primarily to the Governorship of Izmir, Provincial Council General of Izmir and Presidentship of Izmir Municipality, to the Board of the Chairmen of Izmir Chambers, to all of our esteemed trustees, to all of the trainers who undertook responsibilities in the training program and to all of the participants for their presence and also for their intellectual support.

  • Ida) Mountain Region of Western Turkey
    Mining (Dis)amenity: The Political Ecology of Mining Opposition in the Kaz (Ida) Mountain Region of Western Turkey Patrick T. Hurley and Yılmaz Arı ABSTRACT Opposition to mining activities is an increasingly global phenomenon. A key feature of political ecology literature examining this opposition is its focus on the power of multinational corporations to gain access to resources on lands principally claimed by indigenous peoples and peasants in ‘Third World’ countries. These struggles often play out within the context of ten- sions between neoliberal natural resource policies and interventions by non- governmental and civil society actors. Meanwhile, political ecology scholars of natural resource conflicts in ‘First World’ countries are documenting con- flicts over environmental management that emerge from complex commod- ification processes and competing forms of capital investment, such as those associated with amenity migration, that privilege different characteristics of landscapes. These perspectives are rarely combined into a single framework, despite the recognition that common dimensions may intermingle in regional contexts around the world. Using the case of conflict over gold mining in the Kaz (Ida) Mountains of western Turkey, this article explores the intersection of state neoliberalism with competing forms of rural capital, which produce a regional mining conflict. Our case highlights the value of ‘locating the First and Third Worlds within’ when it comes to studies of social processes that shape environmental conflicts. ‘Those who oppose gold exploration in the Ida Mountains are under the power of some foreign-based groups that don’t want to allow [us to benefit from] our country’s richness with respect to gold.’ (Turkish Energy Minister Hilmi Guler,¨ 20 October 2007) ‘This region is famous for its olives, its air, its oxygen ...They will separate the gold with cyanide ...Cyanide will poison our [drinking] water, our soil ...The region’s income, tourism, and olive industry will all die.

  • Determination of Land Degradation According to Land Use Types
    DOI: 10.5152/forestist.2020.19030 Forestist 2020, 70(1): 44-52 Original Article Determination of land degradation according to land use types: a case study from the Gulf of Edremit, Turkey Arazi bozulumunun arazi kullanım türlerine göre değerlendirilmesi: Edremit Körfezi örneği, Türkiye Çağan Alevkayalı1 , Şermin Tağıl2 1Department of Geography, Suleyman Demirel University, Faculty of Arts and Science, Isparta, Turkey 2Department of Geography, Izmır Bakircay University, Faculty of Arts and Science, Izmir Turkey ABSTRACT Land degradation has a long history and a significant effect on land management. Long-term changes in land use are among the important mechanisms of the land degradation process. According to the land use evolution, the main goal of this study is to determine the level of land degradation within the land use types by using the Environmentally Sensitive Areas (ESA) Index, and the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index in the Gulf of Edremit. The methods presented in this study can easily be applied to identify forces driving the land degradation from a small basin to regional scale for mitigation of desertification in sub-humid Mediter- ranean environmental conditions. The ESAs are calculated according to land use types within the context of soil, climate, vegetation, and management, through their special characteristics, and their interactions with each other. The main results, assessed with the proposed land degradation, showed that approximately 30% of the total study area is critically sensitive to degradation, and 50% of the study area is fragile. The ratio of critical areas in settlement areas and agricultural areas was found to be quite high, especially in coastal areas.

  • Proposing a Holistic Basin-Scale As a Strategy of Smart Planning in Adaptation to Climate Change
    Sustainable Development and Planning IX 169 PROPOSING A HOLISTIC BASIN-SCALE AS A STRATEGY OF SMART PLANNING IN ADAPTATION TO CLIMATE CHANGE CENK HAMAMCIOĞLU & ZEKİYE YENEN Faculty of Architecture, Department of Urban and Regional Planning, Yıldız Technical University, Turkey ABSTRACT Forthcoming expected results due to the phenomenon of global warming require adaptation strategies and precautions promptly to be taken on international, national and local scales. With reference to this urgent circumstance, policy frameworks executed by the international organizations, governments and ministries of nations on the consequences of adaptation to climate change have been on the agenda over the last decade. This study is derived from Turkey’s policy of approach that excludes the investments of infrastructure and economic sectors from the scope of the National Climate Change Adaptation Strategy and Action Plan (2011) as a critic from the perspective of balanced development that is also an instrument of sustainability. Therefore, to clarify this deficiency, factors of infrastructure and economic sectors exacerbating the process of climate change and their mutual interaction with other sectors and nature is identified and discussed over remarkable samples from three geographically and socio-economically different basins in Turkey, studied since 2005 by the researchers of this paper. In order to coordinate adaptation to climate change, this study designates: (1) the essential role of water-soil-vegetation integrity of the life cycle with human activities, (2) controllable and observable scale for the management of risks and hazardous events, (3) opportunity to determine capacities and thresholds based on cross-sector interaction in terms of the characteristics of the local natural environment and (4) co-existence of communities and settlement system patterns sharing a fate of union of particular bases for implementing holistic basin- scale as a strategy of smart planning.

  • Ivrindi-Balikesir, Nw Anatolia
    International Symposium on Geography Environment and Culture in the Mediterranean Region GEOMORPHOLOGY OF THE UPPER PART OF KOCAÇAY RIVER BASIN, (İVR İND İ-BALIKES İR, NW ANATOLIA) Kamile GÜLÜM 1 Abstract Study area: the upper watershed of Kocaçay river-basin is located on the south of the Marmara Region. It covers an area of 751 km². Policyclic topografic forms are dominant since different tectonic and climatic process have affected the study area. The land forms of the study area are closely related to the lithological properties. Dominant topographic shapes are plateaus as they are dissected by running water. Although the dominating topographical features today show a mature type of topography, valleys are generally younger. Drainage systems have mostly been formed during the Pliocene Age . It has been developed in the Quaternary. In fact, the valley system is of the Plio-Quaternary period. The topographical discordance found in the study area is probably the result of Post-Alpine tectonical uplift that occurred at the end of the Pliocene Age and the beginning of the Quaternary. There are three erosional surfaces at an elevation of 550-750 meters, 300-520 meters, and 210-300 meters. These surfaces indicate different erosional and depositional process to have occured in the study area. In other words, tectonic movements are responsible for the formation of erosional and depositional surface. Erosional activities continue in the river valley since the base level is lowered or backward. As a result, the erosion process continues. Valleys are still in the character of young valleys. In fact, when the topography in the upper track of Kocaçay river basin is considered as a whole, one can say that the development is still in the young stage.
