Identification of specific pollutants in Yeşilırmak river basin by using COMMPS and NORMAN prioritization methods
Erciyas, Emre; Yetiş, Ülkü; Department of Environmental Engineering (2018)
According to the Water Framework Directive (2000/60/EC), there is a need for the identification of substances posing a relatively higher risk to the aquatic environment and human health to be included in monitoring and risk assessment studies. Thus, river basin specific pollutants must be identified and regularly monitored by the EU Member States to achieve good ecological water status. This study aims to determine specific pollutants in the Yesilirmak River Basin. The national list of 250 river basin speci...
IDENTIFICATION OF EVACUATION ZONES BY SUPERPOSED HAZARD MAPPING METHOD IN CASE OF A HYPOTHETICAL NUCLEAR POWER PLANT ACCIDENT: THE CASE OF AKKUYU NUCLEAR POWER PLANT
Demiryay, Bensu; Akkar Ercan, Zübeyde Müge; Tüydeş Yaman, Hediye; Department of Geodetic and Geographical Information Technologies (2022-9-2)
The capacity of ionizing radiation to cause severe damage leads to a growing concern worldwide, raising awareness to protect the living and non-living environment against nuclear disasters with efficient preparation and response. Evacuation planning plays an essential role in avoiding and mitigating the adverse effects of this radiation. This research aims to identify evacuation zones and estimate evacuation demand by developing superposed nuclear hazard maps on a GIS platform for the hypothetical accident ...

Identification of traffic accident hot spots and their characteristics in urban area by using GIS
Kundakçı, Ezgi; Tüydeş Yaman, Hediye; Department of Geodetic and Geographical Information Technologies (2014)
A major problem in the world and in Turkey is traffic accidents and consequent loss of life or property. In addition to the literature on highway black spots, it is necessary to identify urban locations with high traffic accident occurrence rates in order to shed light to underlying problems and develop preventive measures.Despite the more strict black spot definition for highways, accident prone locations in urban areas are regarded as hot spots, which can be simply defined as clusters representing dense a...
Determination of potential groundwater discharge zones into a Salt Lake using remote sensing techniques and in situ measurements
Kılıç, Ecenur; Yılmaz, Koray Kamil; Süzen, Mehmet Lütfi (2015-04-17)
Groundwater and surface water are integral components of the hydrologic system with strong feedback mechanisms and hence should be treated as a single resource. Existence of groundwater discharge into lakes is a very significant factor that affects both the water quantity of the lake as well as its ecological and biological diversity. The degree of interaction is more significant for shallow lakes because of their increased vulnerability due to limited volume and rapid changes in the extent and duration of ...
