With rapid population growth, waste management, which is one of the most important ways to combat the climate crisis, has become a source of increasing crisis. Given that cities house more than half of the world's population, the impact of mass migration on waste production and management is more profound. In this context, the mass migration from Syria to Türkiye that began in the twenty-first century have had a significant impact on the Southeastern Anatolia region, particularly the province of Kilis, whose population has almost doubled as a result of the Syrians granted temporary protection. This research aims to draw the linkage between the mass migration and waste management through its effects on mid-sized cities. Hence, within the scope of this study, how local governments struggle with waste management with the effect of mass migration and its effects on municipal services and social life in the city will be examined in the example of Kilis.

Environmental sustainability assessment using dynamic Autoregressive-Distributed Lag simulations-Nexus between greenhouse gas emissions, biomass energy, food and economic growth Sarkodie, Samuel Asumadu; Strezov, Vladimir; Weldekidan, Haftom; Asamoah, Ernest Frimpong; Owusu, Phebe Asantewaa; Doyi, Israel Nutifafa Yawo (Elsevier BV, 2019-06-10) Increasing population demand has triggered the enhancement of food production, energy consumption and economic development, however, its impact on climate change has become a global concern. This study applied a novel environmental sustainability assessment tool using dynamic Autoregressive-Distributed Lag (ARDL) simulations for model estimation of the relationships between greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, energy, biomass, food and economic growth for Australia using data spanning from 1970 to 2017. The stud...
Impact analysis of flood in Accra, Ghana Asumadu-Sarkodie, Samuel; Owusu, Phebe Asantewaa; Rufangura, Patrick (2017-6-19) Within the past decades, flooding has become a global pandemic, which hampers economic and social development. This global phenomenon has led to loss of lives and economic damages in many countries including Ghana. On June 3rd 2015, Accra, Ghana's capital experienced an unprecedented flash flood event, coupled with an explosion at a Goil filling station that resulted in a death toll of over 152 lives. It is therefore necessary to explore new ideas and approaches that can be incorporated to existing structur...
Emission sources and full spectrum of health impacts of black carbon associated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in urban environment: A review Ali, Muhammad Ubaid; Siyi, Lin; Yousaf, Balal; Abbas, Qumber; Hameed, Rashida; Zheng, Chunmiao; Kuang, Xingxing; Wong, Ming Hung (Informa UK Limited, 2020-03-19) With increased urbanization and industrialization, the global burden of anthropogenic emissions through biomass and fossil fuel combustion has increased significantly, threatening the global climate system, air quality and human health. Half of the aerosol particles emitted as a result of combustion are in the form of black carbon (BC), co-emitted with polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Due to strong sorption efficiency, BC act as a carrier for highly toxic and carcinogenic PAHs in air, water and soil...
Overview of microbes based fabricated biogenic nanoparticles for water and wastewater treatment Ali, Imran; Peng, Changsheng; Khan, Zahid M.; Naz, Iffat; Sultan, Muhammad; Ali, Mohsin; Abbasi, Irfan A.; Islam, Tariqul; Ye, Tong (Elsevier BV, 2019-01-15) Treatment of toxic and emerging pollutants (T&EPs) is increasing the threats to the survival of conventional wastewater treatment (WWTs) technologies. The high installation and operational costs of advanced treatment technologies have shifted the research interest to the development of economical and reliable technology for management of T&EPs. Thus, recently biogenic nanoparticles (BNPs) fabricated using microbes/microorganisms are getting tremendous research interest due to their unique properties (i.e. h...
Application of spatial and non-spatial data analysis in determination of the factors that impact municipal solid waste generation rates in Turkey KESER, Saniye; Duzgun, Sebnem; Aksoy, Ayşegül (2012-03-01) In studies focusing on the factors that impact solid waste generation habits and rates, the potential spatial dependency in solid waste generation data is not considered in relating the waste generation rates to its determinants. In this study, spatial dependency is taken into account in determination of the significant socio-economic and climatic factors that may be of importance for the municipal solid waste (MSW) generation rates in different provinces of Turkey. Simultaneous spatial autoregression (SAR)...
