Coastal scenic evaluation: A study of some dalmatian (Croatia) areas
Ergin, Ayşen; Micallef, A.; Radic, M.; Williams, A. T. (2006-12-01)
Many scenic assessments have been carried out on a subjective base. A novel technique addressed scenic evaluation, through application of fuzzy logic methodologies to values obtained from a checklist that itemized 26 physical and human parameters. These parameters, obtained by consultation with coastal experts and users, were rated on a five-point attribute scale, covering presence/absence or poor quality (1), to excellent/outstanding (5). These attributes, subjected to fuzzy logic analyses producing matric...
Coastal management to improve environmental quality in Göcek Bay, Turkey
Can, Ö.; Alp, Emre; Yalçıner, Ahmet Cevdet (2012-09-17)
Being one of the specially protected areas declared by Environmental Protection Agency for Special Areas in Turkey (EPASA), Göcek Bay is threatened by increasing boat tourism. Because of the insufficient legal practices and regulations, boats continue to discharge their domestic waste and bilge wastewaters to the bay. Large scale measures are being planned for decreasing the pollution and protecting the region. For a sustainable coastal management, technical, social, political and economic tools are needed ...
COASTAL VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT FOR MERSIN AND İSKENDERUN BAYS, NORTHEASTERN MEDITERRANEAN
Aykut, Fahri; Tezcan, Devrim; Department of Oceanography (2021-2)
Coasts are sensitive and dynamic areas against natural influences such as waves, winds, currents, and tides. Pressure of human activities also accelerate the change of coasts. Climate change and global sea level rise are other factors affecting the coasts. Therefore, the identification and protection of coasts, which are important in terms of socio-economically and natural environment, becomes an important issue. One of the main purposes of this study is to classify Mersin and İskenderun bays coasts accordi...
Coastal scenery: Appreciation and evaluation
Ergin, Ayşen; Micallef, A. (2006-07-01)
Twenty-six parameters have been selected that delineate coastal scenery. These were obtained via consultation between coastal users and experts in the field. The parameters were assessed as to their priorities and weightings given. Application of fuzzy logic techniques enabled a decision parameter (D) to be calculated for any coastal scene. Over 100 worldwide coastal sites were analysed via the technique and a five-class differentiation obtained from D values.
Coastal Tsunami and Risk Assessment for Eastern Mediterranean Countries
Yavuz, Cüneyt; Kentel Erdoğan, Elçin (null; 2017-12-17)
Tsunamis are rarely experienced events that have enormous potential to cause large economic destruction on the critical infrastructures and facilities, social devastation due to mass casualty, and environmental adverse effects like erosion, accumulation and inundation. Especially for the past two decades, nations have encountered devastating tsunami events. The aim of this study is to investigate risks along the Mediterranean coastline due to probable tsunamis based on simulations using reliable historical ...
