A Review of Climate Type Variability from Bartın Region

Year 2018, Volume: 20 Issue: 3, 576 - 582, 15.12.2018

Abstract

Climate change is a major problem in the world’s
agenda recently. The consequences of climate change can vary on global,
regional and local scales in the form of flood, drought, poverty, precipitation
and temperature extremes. In this study, climate type change in Bartın-Turkey
region was analyzed based on the last fifty years of data. There have been
three major floods in Bartın city center over the last two decades. This is the
case with the preference of Bartın for the study area. According to Thornthwaite
method between 1965-2014 period, it was determined whether there had been
climate type change by analyzing temperature and precipitation data obtained
from the General Directorate of Meteorology. Although there have been
alterations in some indices, there was no definite climate type change at the
local level. However, in the last two decades the average annual temperature
has increased by 1.23 °C, while the average summer temperature has increased by
2.06 °C. Annual average precipitation has also increased by 52.95 mm over the
same period. During this period, the average amount of rainfall that has ceased
in the summer months, has also increased by 26.61 mm. It is estimated that
these changes in the average rainfall would have been one of the causes of floods
in Bartın City center over the last two decades. It is anticipated that the
increase in the average temperature and precipitation may cause local problems
in the subsequent years.

Bartın Yöresinde İklim Tipi Değişikliğine Yönelik Bir Değerlendirme

Year 2018, Volume: 20 Issue: 3, 576 - 582, 15.12.2018

Abstract

İklim değişikliği son zamanlarda dünyanın gündeminde olan önemli bir
sorundur. İklim değişikliğinin boyutları küresel, bölgesel ve yerel ölçekte
sel, kuraklık, kıtlık, yağış ve sıcaklık uç değerleri şeklinde farklılıklar
gösterebilmektedir. Bu çalışmada, son elli yıllık süre esas alınarak,
Bartın-Türkiye yerelinde iklim tipi değişimi araştırılmıştır. Bartın şehir
merkezinde son yirmi yılda üç büyük taşkın meydana gelmiştir. Çalışma alanı
olarak Bartın’ın seçilmesinde bu durum etkili olmuştur. Meteoroloji Genel
Müdürlüğü’nün sıcaklık ve yağış verileri kullanılarak 1965-2014 arasındaki
dönemde, Thornthwaite yöntemine göre iklim tipi değişikliği olup olmadığı
araştırılmıştır. Ortaya çıkan sonuç, bazı indis değerlerinde değişimler
olmasına rağmen, yerel ölçekte iklim tipi değişikliği olmadığı yönündedir.
Bununla birlikte son yirmi yıllık dönemde yıllık ortalama sıcaklık 1.23 oC,
yaz ayları ortalama sıcaklığı ise 2.06 oC artmıştır. Yıllık ortalama
yağış miktarı da aynı dönem içinde 52.95 mm artış göstermiştir. Bu süre içinde
yaz aylarında düşen ortalama yağış miktarında da 26.61 mm artış
gerçekleşmiştir. Özellikle yağış ortalamalarındaki bu değişimlerin, Bartın’da
son yirmi yılda meydana gelen taşkınların nedenlerinden biri olabileceği
değerlendirilmektedir. Sıcaklık ve yağış ortalamalarında meydana gelen
artışların, ilerleyen yıllarda yerel sorunlar oluşturabileceği öngörülmektedir.
