A number of studies have so far been conducted to assess the magnitude of pollution generated by domestic and industrial sources in the Istanbul Metropolitan Area. They indicate that a management scheme for wastewater treatment and disposal should involve a total discharge of 15.4 m3 s-1 with a potential pollution load of 330 tons BOD5 day-1 for 1990. A scheme of this magnitude inevitably requires careful evaluation of receiving water characteristics, both from an oceanographic and a quality standpoint.

Apportionment of PCB Sources Near a Transformer Maintenance and Repair Facility in Ankara, Turkey
Karakas, Filiz; Gedik, Kadir; İmamoğlu, İpek (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2013-08-01)
The concentration and major sources of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were evaluated in the sediments from a special environmental protection area located near a transformer maintenance and repair facility (TMRF) in Ankara, Turkey. aPCB concentrations analyzed on Aroclor and congener basis (seven indicator congeners) ranged from 0.1 to 84.2 and 0.1 to 21.7 ng/g dry weight, respectively. Results show that higher total PCB concentrations were localized around one of the drainage channels of the TMRF. Identi...
TRANSPORT OF DISSOLVED DISPERSED PETROLEUM-HYDROCARBONS IN THE NORTHEASTERN MEDITERRANEAN
YILMAZ, A; SAYDAM, AC; BASTURK, O; SALIHOGLU, I (Informa UK Limited, 1991-01-01)
The distribution and transportation of Dissolved/Dispersed Petroleum Hydrocarbons (DDPH) were investigated in the Northern Levantine together with the physical dynamics of the region. It was clearly observed that the characteristic meso‐scale eddies formed in the area strongly affect the distribution of this pollutant. A recent example of cruises which was performed in March 1989, covered relatively large scale are in the Eastern Mediterranean and the chemistry studies coupled with the physical data for thi...
Assessing the effects of wind farms on soil organic carbon.

Wind energy is considered one of the cleanest and most sustainable resources among renewable energy sources. However, several negative environmental impacts can be observed, unless suitable sites are selected for the establishment of wind farms. The aim of this study is to determine the change in the soil organic carbon (SOC) stock resulting from land cover changes that were caused by wind farm establishments in the Karaburun peninsula. Within the scope of the study, remote sensing and geographic informatio...
Multivariate co-integration analysis of the Kaya factors in Ghana
Asumadu-Sarkodie, Samuel; Owusu, Phebe Asantewaa (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2016-05-01)
The fundamental goal of the Government of Ghana's development agenda as enshrined in the Growth and Poverty Reduction Strategy to grow the economy to a middle income status of US$1000 per capita by the end of 2015 could be met by increasing the labour force, increasing energy supplies and expanding the energy infrastructure in order to achieve the sustainable development targets. In this study, a multivariate co-integration analysis of the Kaya factors namely carbon dioxide, total primary energy consumption...
Geothermal energy potential and utilization in Turkey
Taşdemiroğlu, Ersoy (Elsevier BV, 1988-3)
The regional distribution of the geothermal energy potential in Turkey, recent surveys, and utilization areas are described. The present and future roles of geothermal energy and their economic aspects are discussed. The implications of geothermal energy exploration and utilization are noted. Recommendations are made to expand geothermal-energy development.
