Abstract

Marine aquaculture in Turkey has been rapidly growing during the last two decades in the coastal zone. This growth has led the government to take measures to reduce environmental degradation. After the new regulation for aquaculture, in 2007, most sea farm cages were relocated from shallow water to relatively deeper areas in Gulluk Bay. In this study a spatial analysis of marine fish farming was performed, using several GIS data layers to assess Allocated Aquaculture Zone (AZA) and to monitor operations. A spatial analysis of fish farming the Gulluk Bay in the context of the other major sea users and their relative percentages in the sea use pattern were determined. The Allocated Aquaculture Zone (AZA) amounted to 20.8 % of total water surface area; licensed cage areas occupied 0.45%, trawl areas 34.4%, important natural areas 35.4% and multiusage zones the rest. The study used water quality index (TRIX) data for evaluation in conjunction with GIS. The study shows how different terrestrial and marine activities interact with each other, and that certain areas are subject to layers of multiple usages and water quality index (TRIX) data was evaluated by using a GIS.

Abstract

Türkiye’de deniz yetiştiriciliği kıyısal alanlarda son 20 yıl boyunca hızlı bir şekilde artış göstermiştir. Bunun sonucu olarak hükümet, çevrede oluşan negatif etkilerin azaltılması yolunda önlemler almıştır. 2007 yılında yayınlanan yönetmelikten sonra birçok balık çiftliği Güllük Körfezi’nin kıyı sularından daha derin sulara taşınmıştır. Bu çalışmada, balık çiftliklerinin alansal analizleri ve izleme çalışmaları CBS veri katmanları kullanılarak yapılmıştır. Güllük Körfezi’nde balık çiftliklerinin alansal analizi, diğer deniz kullanıcıları ve kullanım alan yüzdeleri ile birlikte tanımlanmıştır. Deniz yetiştiriciliğine ayrılan alan körfezin %20.8 (yetiştiricilik için kiralanan alan körfezin %0.45’ini), trol alanı %34.4, önemli doğa alanı %35.4’ünü kapsamakta olup, kalan deniz alanının ise birden fazla kullanıcıya ait olduğu belirlenmiştir. Çalışmada kullanılan su kalite indeksi (TRIX) değerlendirilmesinde CBS kullanılmıştır. Bu çalışmada farklı karasal ve denizel kullanıcıların birbiriyle ilişkileri, bazı alanların çoklu kullanıcıları olduğu ve su kalite indeksinin CBS ile değerlendirilebileceği gösterilmiştir.
