Abstract

Geçtiğimiz birkaç on yılda turizm birçok ülkede en önemli ekonomik faaliyetlerden biri haline geldi. Son yıllarda Dünya genelinde hem salgın hem de savaş nedeniyle turizm faaliyetlerinde düşüş görülmektedir. Özellikle soğuk ülkelerden yaz aylarında Türkiye’ye turistler gelmektedir. Salgın ve savaşların yanı sıra küresel iklim değişikliğine bağlı olarak artan sıcaklık turizm aktivitelerini de etkilemektedir. İnsanlar bu artan sıcaklık karşısında kendilerini en rahat hissettiği ortamlarda turizm faaliyetlerini sürdürmek istemektedir. İnsan faaliyetlerine etki eden en önemli faktör biyoklimatik konfor koşullarıdır. Bu koşulların belirlenmesi önemlidir. Biyokonfor koşulları için çeşitli indeksler geliştirilmiştir. Bu çalışmada Aydın İli 2021 yılı haziran, temmuz ve ağustos aylarına ait sıcaklık, aylık ortalama ve maksimum bağıl nem (%), aylık ortalama rüzgâr şiddeti (km/saat), aylık ortalama yağış (mm) ve aylık ortalama güneşlenme süresi (saat) verileri temin edilmiştir. Veriler excel ortamında düzenlenmiştir. Veriler düzenlendikten sonra turizm iklim konforunun hesaplanmasında en yaygın olarak turizm konfor indeksi (TCI) formülü ile çalışma alanında yer alan meteorolojik gözlem istasyonlarına ait TCI değeri hesaplanmıştır. Açık kaynak koldu QGIS yazılımı içerisine meteorolojik gözlem istasyonları ve TCI değerleri atılmıştır. Ters mesafe ağırlıklı enterpolasyon yöntemi kullanılarak haziran, temmuz ve ağustos aylarına ait TCI haritası üretilmiştir. Bu haritalar üzerinde Aydın İli turizm iklim konforu değerlendirilmiştir.

Abstract

In the past few decades, tourism has become one of the most important economic activities in many countries. In recent years, there has been a decrease in tourism activities worldwide due to both epidemic and war. In Particular, Tourists come to Turkey from cold countries in the summer months. In addition to epidemics and wars, increasing temperature due to global climate change also affects tourism activities. People want to continue their tourism activities in environments where they feel most comfortable in the face of this increasing temperature. The most important factor affecting human activities is bioclimatic comfort conditions. It is important to identify these conditions. Various indices have been developed for bio comfort conditions. In this study, it was used for the data which are the temperature, monthly average and maximum relative humidity (%), monthly average wind speed (km/hour), monthly average precipitation (mm) and monthly average sunshine duration (hours) data for the months of June, July and August 2021 in Aydın Province has been provided. The data were organized in an excel environment. After the data were arranged, the TCI value of the meteorological observation stations in the study area was calculated with the most common Tourism Comfort Index (TCI) formula in calculating the tourism climate comfort. Meteorological observation stations and TCI values were imported into the open-source QGIS software. TCI maps for the months of June, July and August were produced using the inverse distance-weighted interpolation method. It has been evaluated on these maps for Aydın Province tourism climate comfort.
