Exploring the Ecological Footprint in Turkey: Analyzing the Interplay of Economic and Environmental Factors

Öz

Nowadays, the world is facing increasing ecological issues due to the rapid growth of the population, the expansion of industrial activity, the fast urbanization process, and the higher levels of consumption. As a result of the current ecological problems, there has been an unchecked increase in the demand for natural resources. This study identified the independent variables that influence the ecological footprint as the Gross Domestic Product (GDP), KOF Globalization Index (KOFGI), and Natural Resource Rent (NRR). The Markov chains approach was used to anticipate the movements of the dependent and independent variables in the future period. Frequency and transition probability matrices were then generated. The dependent and independent variables for the next period were compared to the actual values, and the accuracy of the predictions made using Markov chains was demonstrated. A model of an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) was created to accurately predict the value of the dependent variable. The ANN modeling was used to estimate the ecological footprint, taking into account the values of Turkey's GDP growth rate (% per year), NRR (as a percentage of GDP), and KOF Globalization Index data from 1970 to 2016. The Feed-Forward Backpropagation Method, which is a type of multi-layer network model, was utilized for the modeling process. The Levenberg-Marquardt optimization algorithm was employed as the network training function to update the weight and deviation values of the network. The study's findings indicate that the dataset as a whole has a significant level of agreement with the model's correctness, with a close proximity of 99.316%. Based on the collected results, it can be inferred that the developed artificial neural network (ANN) model has a notable level of precision in calculating the Ecological Footprint.
