Soil erosion risk mapping using geographic information systems : a case study on Kocadere creek watershed, İzmir Okalp, Kıvanç; Akyürek, Sevda Zuhal; Department of Geodetic and Geographical Information Technologies (2005) Soil erosion is a major global environmental problem that is increasing year by year in Turkey. Preventing soil erosion requires political, economic and technical actions; before these actions we must learn properties and behaviors of our soil resources. The aims of this study are to estimate annual soil loss rates of a watershed with integrated models within GIS framework and to map the soil erosion risk for a complex terrain. In this study, annual soil loss rates are estimated using the Universal Soil Los...
Assessment of management policies for lake Ulubat basin using avswat Bulut, Elif; Aksoy, Ayşegül; Department of Environmental Engineering (2005) This thesis assesses phosphorus loads and management practices to control nutrient transport to Lake Uluabat. It analyzes nonpoint sources of pollution, especially agricultural pollution, throughout Uluabat Basin (watershed). AVSWAT (ArcviewTM Interface of Soil and Water Assessment Tool 2000) was used in determination of phosphorus and sediment loads to Lake Uluabat. Contribution of soluble phosphorus (SOLP) loads from agricultural sites was discussed. Seven scenarios were applied through watershed area to ...
Environmental performance of urban patterns in terms of their ecological footprint Tanrıkulu, Melda; Barlas, Mehmet Adnan; Department of City and Regional Planning (2010) Within the twenty–first century, nearly three billion people, half of total population of the world, live in cities. It is estimated that in the forthcoming twenty–five years, two billion more people will settle in urban lands. Essentially most of these devastating changes will occur in developing countries, both in terms of the total global urban population as well as increased percentage of the individual country’s population living in urban areas. For many developing countries, the urban population is al...
Composition of atmosphere at the Central Anatolia Yörük, Ebru; Tuncel, Süleyman Gürdal; Department of Environmental Engineering (2004) Concentrations of elements and ions measured in samples collected between February 1993 and December 2000 at a rural site in central Anatolia were investigated to evaluate the chemical composition of atmosphere at central Anatolia, to determine pollution level of the region, to study temporal variability of the pollutants and to investigate the sources and source regions of air pollutants in the region. Level of pollution at central Anatolia was found to be lower than the pollution level at other European c...
Biological decay and its control by biomineralisation in calcareous stones Üstünkaya, Meltem Cemre; Saltık, Emine Nevin; Department of Archaeometry (2008) Biodeterioration has an important role in weathering of historical materials. Natural stone materials become vulnerable to physical and chemical changes in outdoor conditions, favouring the biological growth. In this study, biodeterioration on calcareous stones and its control by biomineralisation were studied on limestones from Nemrut Mount Monument and marbles from Pessinous Archaeological Site. For qualitative and quantitative detection of biological activity fluorescein diacetate (FDA) method that was d...
