Abstract

Çanakkale Strait is a busy waterway and an important recreational area for the city of Çanakkale frequented by locals and tourists throughout the year. This study was carried out on a constructed coastal rocky area located in the vicinity of the city Center of Çanakkale, between 2021-2022 in order to determine the extent of litter accumulation, type of litter as produced materials and use purposes. A total of 3528 and 1777 items were collected in 2021, and 2022, respectively. Results indicated that litter density was higher than the majority of studies reported from other locations along the Turkish coasts. The most common marine litter was made up of plastics which amounted to 80.24% and 59.65% of total litter composition in 2021 and 2022, respectively. Mixed packing materials were predominant and indicated extensive use of plastic materials in food and beverage sector. Public awareness towards proper ways of litter disposal, use of biodegradable packing materials, beach cleaning and waste management are critical for successful litter management, especially in coastal areas.

Thanks

The authors would like to thank to Çanakkale Directorate of the Ministry of Environment, Urbanism and Climate Change, the Faculty of Marine Sciences and Technology and the Association for Saving Aquatic Ecosystems for help with litter collection and sorting in the study area.

Çanakkale Boğazı Kıyısında Kayalık Bir Alanda Toplanan Deniz Çöplerinin Yıllık Değişimi

Abstract

Çanakkale Boğazı işlek bir su yolu olmasının yanında bölge insanı ve turuistlerin ziyaret ettiği önemli bir rekreasyon alanıdır. Bu çalışma, 2021 ve 2022 yıllarında Çanakkale Boğazı’nın Çanakkale şehir merkezindeki denizden doldurularak kazanılmış kayalık bir kesiminde, çöp birikiminin boyutu, çöplerin tipleri, malzeme olarak çöpün türü ve kullanım amaçlarını belirlemek için yürütülmüştür. 2021 yılında 3528 adet, 2022 yılında ise 1777 adet çöp toplanmıştır. Çöp yoğunluğu, Türkiye kıyılarında gerçekleştirilen önceki çalışmaların çoğundan çok daha yüksek bulunmuştur. En yaygın deniz çöpünü 2021'de %80,24 ve 2022'de %59,65 ile plastikler oluşturmuştur. En fazla karışık ambalaj malzemelerinin toplanması, gıda ve içecek sektöründe plastik malzemelerin çok yaygın kullanıldığını göstermiştir. Uygun çöp imha yöntemleri, biyolojik olarak parçalanabilen ambalaj malzemelerinin kullanımı, sahil temizliği ve atık yönetimi konusunda halkın bilinçlendirilmesi, özellikle kıyı bölgelerinde başarılı çöp yönetimi için kritik öneme sahiptir.
