Ships, which form the backbone of world trade, are also a major source of pollutants. These pollutants can cause very important health problems, especially in areas with a high human population and in tourism areas. Therefore, detection and prevention of ship emissions must be considered, carefully. Dardanelles and Bosporus, known as the Turkish Straits, are one of the locations where the impact of ship emissions is felt the most as narrow and densely populated waterways. In this study, the data of the ships passing through the Dardanelles in 2020 were processed and the emissions generated by these ships were calculated as 545,373.3 t. Based on these data, the damages caused by these emissions to the environment and solutions were discussed. In addition, the potential effects of ship traffic on marine life are also discussed.

Çanakkale Boğazı Gemi Trafiğinin Emisyon Tahmini

Öz

Dünya ticaretinin bel kemiğini oluşturan gemiler, aynı zamanda büyük kirletici kaynağıdır. Bu kirleticiler, özellikle insan nüfusunun yoğun olduğu bölgelerde ve turizm bölgelerinde çok önemli sağlık sorunlarına yol açabilir. Bu nedenle, gemi emisyonlarının tespiti ve önlenmesi dikkate alınması gereken çalışmalardır. Türk Boğazları olarak bilinen Çanakkale ve İstanbul Boğazları, dar, yoğun nüfuslu ve yoğun gemi trafiğine sahip su yolları olarak gemi emisyonlarının etkisinin en çok hissedildiği konumlardan birisidir. Bu çalışmada, Çanakkale Boğazı'ndan 2020 yılında geçen gemilere ait veriler işlenerek bu gemilerin oluşturduğu emisyonlar 545.373,3 t olarak hesaplanmıştır. Bu verilerden yola çıkılarak, bu emisyonların çevreye verdikleri zararlar ve çözüm yolları üzerinde tartışılmıştır. Buna ek olarak, gemi trafiğinin deniz yaşamı üzerindeki potansiyel etkileri de tartışılmıştır.
