In Turkey, river navigation is uncommon because of highly random variations in river discharges throughout the year. This study deals with the design of a rural river navigation system to be implemented in Turkey. In the design of the system, a low flow design discharge is taken into account. River training is applied together with the design of the locks to maintain safe navigation conditions with a minimum required flow depth and surface width, and to control the water level throughout the reach. Finally, a gate operation rule is defined mainly by considering the water surface elevation in an upstream lake.

The Effect of the Use of Wave Data for the Numerical Simulation of Shoreline Evaluation Guler, Isikhan; Ergin, Ayşen; Yalçıner, Ahmet Cevdet (1998-03-01) Manavgat River flows into the Mediterranean sea at southern coasts of Turkey. The river mouth being unstable shoals and shifts seasonally, preventing continuous navigation of boats and yachts through the entrance channel of river mouth. To stabilize the river mouth some alternative structures are studied and jetty type structure is chosen as the protection structure. The shoreline change of the Manavgat River mouth with and without protection structure is studied by using one line model for shoreline evolut...
A Case Study for Determination of Hydrological Parameters in HEC HMS In Computing Direct Runoff Akay, Hüseyin; Baduna Koçyiğit, Müsteyde; Yanmaz, Ali Melih (null; 2016-09-23) This study deals with the computation of the direct runoff of a precipitation pattern recorded in a watershed in Western Black Sea Region, Turkey. The aim is to perform a hydrological parameter evaluation using HEC-HMS for a basin with an outlet at Bayıryüzü stream gaging station situated close to Ulus town. The basin is highly mountainous along the rivers and forestry. The basin takes large amounts of rain all year round and the runoff of the basin flows into Ulus stream where more frequent flooding with d...
Use of satellite observed seasonal snow cover in hydrological modeling and snowmelt runoff prediction in upeer euphrates basin, Turkey Şorman, Ali Arda; Akyürek, Sevda Zuhal; Department of Civil Engineering (2005) Snowmelt runoff in the mountainous eastern part of Turkey is of great importance as it constitutes 60-70% in volume of the total yearly runoff during spring and early summer months. Therefore, forecasting the amount and timing of snowmelt runoff especially in the Euphrates Basin, where large dams are located, is an important task in order to use the water resources of the country in an optimum manner. The HBV model, being one of the well-known conceptual hydrological models used more than 45 countries over ...
An Interpretation of the Basement Structure and Formation of the Black Sea Based on Deep Seismic Data and Gravity Modelling Kaymakcı, Nuretdin (null; 2015-12-09) It is widely accepted that the Black Sea consists of two separate back arc basins which opened at different times during the Cretaceous driven by northward subduction of the Neo-Tethys Ocean. The paucity of well data, complex geometries and seismic imaging challenges mean that questions remain regarding the basement architecture though most authors accept that, at least in part, both these basins are floored by oceanic crust, even though there a no magnetic stripes. Interpretation of deep, long offset SPAN ...
Modelling long term morphological changes with XBeach case study of Kizilirmak River mouth Baykal, Cüneyt; Güler, Işıkhan; Özyurt, Gülizar; Söğüt, Erdinç; Güler, Hasan Gökhan; Doğan, Gözde Güney (2015-04-17) The Bafra alluvial plain, where the Kızılırmak River discharges into the Black Sea, is one of the most critical examples of severe coastal erosion problems in Turkey. The amount of sediment carried by the Kızılırmak River has decreased from approximately 23 million ton per year to 0.46 million tons/year starting from 1960s as a result of construction of flow regulatory structures in the following years. This drastic decrease in the amount of sediment carried by the river resulted in a severe shoreline retre...
