This study presents a quantitative methodology for offshore wind power plant site selection in Northwest Turkey usingGeographical Information Systems(GIS) andAnalytical Hierarchy Process, which is one of the Multi-Criteria Decision Making methods. A comprehensive literature review is conducted to identify more than 17 site selection criteria and required GIS data were collected accordingly. Site selection criteria are classified as decision and exclusion criteria. Decision criteria along with their suitable limits and exclusion criteria are evaluated in GIS resulting in five alternative suitable sites. Alternative sitepairwise comparisonmatrices are formed in terms of each decision criterion. In the meantime, a hierarchy of decision criteria is formed, and a questionnaire comparing the relative importance of decision criteria is conducted on national and international experts. Electricity grid connection, offshore average wind speed at 100m height and environmental concerns are found to be the most important decision criteria. Relative importance of decision criteria and alternative site comparisons are combined in two different analyses, namely “scenario analysis” and “consensus analysis”. Out of the five alternative sites, Bozcaada is concluded to be the most suitable site, and the second-best alternative is Kıyıköy.

Offshore oil slick detection with remote sensing techniques Akar, Sertaç; Süzen, Mehmet Lütfi; Department of Geological Engineering (2007) The aim of this thesis is to develop a methodology for detection of naturally occurring offshore oil slicks originating from hydrocarbon seeps using satellite remote sensing techniques. In this scope, Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) imagery has been utilized. Case study area was Andrusov High in the Central Black Sea. Hydrocarbon seepage from tectonic or stratigraphic origin at the sea floor causes oily gas plumes to rise up to the sea surface. They form thin oil films on the sea surface called oil slicks. P...
Risk-based reservoir operation under drought conditions Türkeri, Mustafa Kemal; Akyürek, Sevda Zuhal; Department of Civil Engineering (2019) This study introduces a practical drought risk assessment methodology for reservoirs and hydraulic structures, which can be used in basin drought risk management. Reservoir operation study is used as a main tool in the risk assessment methodology. The methodology developed in this study contains a probabilistic deficiency analysis approach for reservoir inflows. Different scenarios are developed which include hydrological deficiencies for various return periods. Developed scenarios are also modified for cli...
Filling out missing daily streamflow data using fuzzy rule-based models Akgün, Ömer Burak; Kentel Erdoğan, Elçin; Department of Civil Engineering (2020) Daily streamflow observations are used for many purposes including analysis of current water-resources conditions in a basin, development of water-resources planning and management strategies and climate change adaptation measures. Streamgages are used to collect streamflow data; however, many streamgages suffer from a common problem: data-gaps. In this study, a Takagi-Sugeno Fuzzy RuleBased (TS_FRB) Model that uses Subtractive Clustering (SC) for rule generation is developed to fill out missing daily strea...
The Integrated lake basin management planning : a study on the Beyşehir Lake basin Altay, Ezgi; Gedikli, Bahar; Department of City and Regional Planning (2012) This study aims at elaborating the Integrated Lake Basin Management Planning (ILBM) approach, which is considered as a sustainable management model for lake basins, and evaluating the applicability of this approach in Turkey. ILBM considers both biophysical features and managerial requirements of lake basin systems. It pays attention to inherent dynamics between humans and nature. ILBM has been developed on the basis of Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM), which seeks the wise use of water; i.e. us...
Trophic controls in the Black Sea ecosystem (BLACK MODE) Fach Salihoğlu, Bettina Andrea(2008-12-31) The study proposed here aims to understanding the functioning of the Black Sea ecosystem in terms of the "trophic cascade" control and "regime shift" mechanisms using retrospective data analysis and interdisciplinary modelling approach. The main focus of the proposal is on understanding the long-term ecological changes within the pelagic interior Black Sea ecosystem during its transformation from the pre-eutrophication phase of the 1960s to the post-eutrophication phase of the 1990s. It is devoted to ...
