Potential tsunami hazard along the southern Turkish coast
Aydin, Baran; Sharghivand, Naeimeh; Bayazitoglu, Ozge (Elsevier BV, 2020-06-01)
The aim of this study is to determine the tsunami potential of the southern Turkish coast through hypothetical earthquake scenarios developed for several critical coastal sites in the region. A well-known tsunami numerical model (MOST) is utilized to calculate the run-up and inundation of the subsequent tsunami waves. The coastal regions selected to realize the aim of the study are Akkuyu and Yesilovacik from Mersin and Yumurtalik from Adana, which are chosen for their industrial and environmental importanc...
Potential impacts of climate change on wind energy resources in Türkiye
Işık Çetin, İrem; Yücel, İsmail; Arı, İzzet; Department of Earth System Science (2023-3-02)
Increasing the use of renewable energy is crucial in reducing the adverse effects of climate change. However, climate change will also affect weather-dependent renewable energy resources. Therefore, this study aims to identify the effects of climate change on the wind energy resources in Türkiye, which is in the Mediterranean hotspot, in the next century by using recent climate projections (CMIP6) with two different scenarios. The study includes four different results for wind resources in Türkiye. First, t...
Potential regions for smart specialization: a taxonomy of Turkish nuts 2 regions
Oğuz, Muhammed Özgür; Eraydın, Ayda; Department of City and Regional Planning (2019)
This thesis aims to investigate the potential for regional development of the regions of Turkey. This research was conducted in the context of smart specialization, which is considered the most contemporary and valid regional development approach. In this context, the regions were analyzed under three main headings. Firstly, the sectoral clusters in the country were analyzed by using the distribution of labor force to sectors, and which clusters dominated in which regions were determined. Secondly, the inno...
Potential impact of forest management and tree improvement on genetic diversity of Turkish red pine (Pinus brutia Ten.) plantations in Turkey
Icgen, Y; Kaya, Zeki; Cengel, B; Velioglu, E; Ozturk, H; Onde, S (Elsevier BV, 2006-04-15)
Genetic diversity was determined and compared by using 86 random amplified polymorphic DNA loci in 450 families originated from 18 Pinus brutia Ten. (Turkish red pine) seed sources. These seed sources were sampled at three different categories and included six seed stands from six different breeding zones and six seed orchards, and six plantations which were originated from the respective seed stands. Genetic diversity parameters among the plantations, seed orchards and seed stands were compared. There was ...
Potential effects of the T-TIP on Turkey's motor vehicles and parts sector
Akel, Abdullah; Ege, Aylin (National Library of Serbia, 2019)
<jats:p>The aim of this article is to quantify the possible effects of a potential T-TIP between the US and the EU on production and exports of Turkey?s motor vehicles and parts sector. A partial equilibrium model is used to this end under two scenarios, the first one assuming only T-TIP, whereas the second one supposing a simultaneous free trade agreement between the US and Turkey. The simulations are based on the reductions in tariffs and non-tariff barriers between the T-TIP partners in the first scenari...
