Climate Change Impact on Exchange Fluxes Across the Turkish Straits and Its Multi-Regional Implications
Başdurak, Nüvit Berkay; Fach Salihoğlu, Bettina Andrea; Örek, Hasan; ACAR, AYBAR CAN; Salihoğlu, Barış; Tuğrul, Selen (2026-02-01)
Straits, as conduits for the exchange of physical and biogeochemical properties of water masses, control mass and momentum transport between large water bodies where boundaries have a fundamental impact on the flow. The Tu...
KÜRESEL ISINMANIN LEVANT HAVZASI'NIN HİDRODİNAMİK ÖZELLİKLERİ ÜZERİNDEKİ ETKİSİ
Başdurak, Nüvit Berkay; Fach Salihoğlu, Bettina Andrea; Mantıkcı, Asım Mustafa; Örek, Hasan; Salihoğlu, Barış (2025-11-03)
Son on yılda, Akdeniz, değişen iklim düzenleri nedeniyle önemli değişikliklere maruz kalmış ve bu da deniz yüzey sıcaklığının ve tuzluluğunun yanı sıra deniz seviyelerinin yükselmesine yol açmıştır. Levant Havzası, Atlanti...
A Local Eddy Viscosity Parameterization for Estuarine Exchange Flow
Başdurak, Nüvit Berkay; Burchard, Hans; Schuttelaars, Henk M. (2025-09-30)
Coastal discharge extremes and their environmental impact on the Sea of Marmara
Başdurak, Nüvit Berkay (2024-01-01)
Increases in evaporation driven by global warming change the hydrological cycle by fueling extreme precipitation and exacerbating the frequency and intensity of extreme floods. Combined with the increase in terrestrial was...
A local eddy viscosity parameterization for wind-driven estuarine exchange flow, Part II: Entrainment
Başdurak, Nüvit Berkay; Burchard, Hans; Schuttelaars, Henk M. (2023-12-01)
Structure and intensity of estuarine exchange flow depend significantly on the eddy viscosity Av profile which is dynamically linked to various forces (e.g., gravitational, tidal, wind-driven). The impact of winds on the e...
Climate change impacts on river discharge to the Sea of Marmara
Başdurak, Nüvit Berkay (2023-01-01)
The Sea of Marmara, located in Northwestern Türkiye, is under multiple stressors, including climate change and industrial, agricultural, and domestic pollution, that cause deoxygenation in coastal waters, with multiregiona...
DOĞU AKDENİZ'DE DOLAŞIM DESENLERİ VE SU KÜTLESİ OLUŞUMUNDA DEĞİŞKENLİK
Başdurak, Nüvit Berkay; Fach Salihoğlu, Bettina Andrea; Salihoğlu, Barış; Örek, Hasan; Özhan, Koray; MANTIKCI, MUSTAFA; MANTIKCI, MUSTAFA (2022-12-09)
Wind Effects on Small-Scale River and Creek Plumes
Başdurak, Nüvit Berkay; Largier, J.L. (2022-12-01)
In contrast to large river plumes, Coriolis effects are weak, and inertia is quickly depleted so that the fate and structure of small-scale plumes are more sensitive to tide and wind. Advected alongshore by reversing tidal...
Modeling the Dynamics of Small-Scale River and Creek Plumes in Tidal Waters
Başdurak, Nüvit Berkay; Nidzieko, N. J. (2020-07-01)
The fate of discharges from small rivers and mountainous streams are little studied relative to the dynamics of large river plumes. Flows from small watersheds are episodic, forming transient low-salinity surface plumes th...
Parameterization of mixing by secondary circulation in estuaries
Başdurak, Nüvit Berkay; Valle-Levinson, A.; Li, M.; Chant, R. J. (2017-07-01)
Eddy viscosity parameterizations that depend on a gradient Richardson number R-i have been most pertinent to the open ocean. Parameterizations applicable to stratified coastal regions typically require implementation of a ...
