TY - JOUR T1 - Coastal Pollution in Istanbul TT - İSTANBUL’DA KIYI KİRLİLİĞİ AU - Bozkurt Kurt, Esin AU - Erim, Aycan AU - Altındağ, Saffet PY - 2018 DA - December Y2 - 2018 DO - 10.17482/uumfd.428698 JF - Uludağ Üniversitesi Mühendislik Fakültesi Dergisi JO - UUJFE PB - Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi WT - DergiPark SN - 2148-4155 SP - 27 EP - 36 VL - 23 IS - 3 LA - en AB - Quantities of pouches filled with marine debrisand packaging (kg) collected during coast and beach cleaning, the amount ofwaste (m3) collected during sea surface cleaning and moss work (kg),and the amount of sludge removed during stream rehabilitation (m3) were analyzed in Istanbul, Turkeybetween 2013 and 2016. Seasonal changes have been identified in thesequantities. The quantity of packaging pouches collected during coastal cleaninghad increased over time, reached its highest level in 2016. High values ​​wereobserved in September due to heavy rainfall and in the summer due to waste transported from picnic areas. However,low values ​​were seen for all parameters in winter. This increase in wastequantities can be eliminated by taking various precautions such as recycling orreusing plastic bags and bottles instead of throwing waste away. For a cleanersea and coast, public education can be developed to encourage these precautions.In addition, economic measures can be taken such as selling plastic shoppingbags instead of giving them free of charge. KW - Coast KW - Beach KW - Pollution N2 - İstanbul’da 2013 ve 2016 yılları arasında kıyıve plaj temizliğinde toplanan deniz ve ambalaj atıklarının poşet sayısı, deniz yüzeyi temizliğiile toplanan atık miktarı (m³), yosun çalışması ile toplanan atık miktarı (kg)ve dere ıslahı ile çıkarılan çamur miktarı (m³) verileri analiz edilmiştir. Bumiktarlarda mevsimsel değişiklikler tespit edilmiştir. Kıyı temizliği sırasındatoplanan ambalaj poşetlerinin miktarının zamanla aşırı yükseldiği ve 2016'da enyüksek seviyesine ulaştığı görülmüştür. Piknik alanlarından taşınan atıklardandolayı yaz aylarında ve yoğun yağışla sürüklenmeden dolayı eylül ayında yüksekdeğerler gözlenmiştir. Ancak kış mevsiminde tüm parametreler için düşükdeğerler görüldü. Atık miktarlarındakibu artış, atıkların atılması yerine plastik torbaların ve şişelerin geridönüştürülmesi veya yeniden kullanılması gibi çeşitli önlemler alınarakgiderilebilir. Daha temiz bir deniz ve sahil için, bu önlemleri teşvik etmekamacıyla kamu eğitimi geliştirilebilir. Ayrıca, plastik poşetler alışverişlerdeücretsiz verilmek yerine satılması gibi ekonomik tedbirler alınabilir. CR - Ariza, E., Jiménez, J.A., and Sardá, R.
