Cities, in particular, disrupt the natural cycle of rainwater, leading to surface runoff. As a result, the soil skips the stages of water filtering, feeding the groundwater, evaporating, and returning to the atmosphere, leading to an increased frequency of floods that are not part of the hydrological cycle. One of the alternative solutions to global warming is the green infrastructure system. Practices such as rainwater collection systems, water recovery technologies, and the development of irrigation systems ensure efficient use of water resources and prevention of water pollutiYozgat Bozok University Campus has planned for a sustainable campus from a green infrastructure perspective, and has presented a master plan that addresses issues like rainwater management, wastewater recovery, solid waste recycling, and the qualities and quantities of campus open-green areas. The study involved landscape planning, the identification of rain harvesting areas for the campus, which is currently facing a water shortage, and the presentation of plant preferences and water-efficient solution suggestions for the region.}, number={2}, publisher={Süleyman Demirel University}
