Bu çalışma, Türkiye'deki iç su havzalarında sürdürülebilir yüzer yerleşimler oluşturmak amacıyla geliştirilen "EcoFloat Village Türkiye" modelini tanıtmaktadır. İklim değişikliği kaynaklı taşkın riskleri, deniz seviyesi yükselmesi ve kıyı bölgelerindeki mekânsal daralmalar nedeniyle model, ekolojik turizmi, kırsal kalkınmayı ve enerji verimliliğini destekleyen modüler yüzer yapılar tasarlamayı hedeflemektedir. Türkiye genelinde potansiyel yüzer yerleşim alanı olarak 15 iç su havzası belirlenmiştir. Alan seçimi, Ekolojik Uyum, Su Kalitesi, İklimsel Uygunluk, Enerji Potansiyeli, Ulaşılabilirlik, Turizm Potansiyeli, Yasal Uygunluk ve Altyapı Olanakları olmak üzere sekiz ana kriter temelinde yapılmıştır. Bu kriterler, Eskişehir Teknik Üniversitesi Mimarlık Fakültesi ve Çukurova Üniversitesi Peyzaj Mimarlığı Bölümü'nden uzmanlar tarafından Delphi Metodu ile değerlendirilmiştir. Sonrasında, Analitik Hiyerarşi Prosesi kullanılarak alanlar önceliklendirilmiş ve en uygun yerler olarak Eğirdir Gölü (Isparta), Almus Baraj Gölü (Tokat) ve Tercan Baraj Gölü (Erzincan) belirlenmiştir. EcoFloat Village modeli, yenilenebilir enerji, yağmur suyu hasadı ve kompost temelli atık yönetimi ile çevresel etkileri en aza indirmektedir. Modüler ve taşınabilir yapısıyla sürdürülebilir turizme olanak sağlarken, kooperatif temelli işletme modeliyle yerel ekonomiyi desteklemektedir. Model, iç su havzalarında iklim dirençli ve çevre dostu yerleşimlere yönelik ölçeklenebilir bir çözüm sunmaktadır.

EcoFloat Village Türkiye: A Sustainable Floating Settlement Model for Inland Water Basins

Öz

This study introduces the “EcoFloat Village Türkiye” model, developed to create sustainable floating settlements in inland water basins across Türkiye in response to flood risks, rising sea levels, and spatial constraints in coastal areas. The model aims to support ecological tourism, rural development, and energy efficiency through modular and portable floating structures. Fifteen inland basins were identified and evaluated based on eight criteria—Ecological Compatibility, Water Quality, Climatic Suitability, Energy Potential, Accessibility, Tourism Potential, Legal Compliance, and Infrastructure—using the Delphi Method with input from experts at Eskişehir Technical University and Çukurova University. The Analytic Hierarchy Process was then applied to prioritize sites, identifying Lake Eğirdir, Almus Dam Lake, and Tercan Dam Lake as the most suitable. The model minimizes environmental impact through integrated renewable energy, rainwater harvesting, and compost-based waste systems, while enabling sustainable tourism and strengthening local economies through cooperative business models. Overall, EcoFloat Village offers a scalable and environmentally responsible solution for climate-resilient inland settlements.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Floating settlement , Sustainable tourism , Hydroponic agriculture , EcoFloat village , Ecotourism.
