Bu makalede, değişen dünya dinamikleri karşısında denizyolu ve kıyı yapılarında ortaya çıkan yapısal ve sürdürülebilir dönüşümler ele alınmaktadır. Sanayi Devrimi’nden günümüze kadar ki teknolojik atilimlar, deniz yollari ve kiyi yapilarinda ki geleneksel dinamikleri derinden etkilemiştir. Artan Kuresel isinma, deniz yollari ve kiyi yapilarinda ki donusum ihtiyacini arttiran en önemli unsurlardan biridir. Dunya uzerinde kuresel isinmaya karsi her alanda etkisini gosteren degisim ruzgari, ozellikle yesil liman uygulamaları, dijitalleşme, otonom gemiler ve enerji verimliliği politikalarıyla birlikte denizyolu taşımacılığında da etkisini gostermektedir. Ote yandan Türkiye’nin jeostratejik konumu, uluslararası lojistik koridorların merkezinde yer alması nedeniyle büyük bir avantaj sağlamaktadır. Ancak bu stratejik konumu etkin kullanabilmek için geleneksel yöntemlerin yeni nesil teknolojilerle entegre edilmesi gerekmektedir. Bu entegrasyonun ve sahaya yansitilmasina karsi atilacak guclu politikaların geliştirilmesi önem taşımaktadır. Sonuç olarak, Denizyolu ve kıyı yapılarında sürdürülebilirlik odaklı yaklasimlar, ülkelerin gelecekteki lojistik ve ulasim hedeflerini belirleyen en önemli unsurdur.

NEW APPROACHES AND SUSTAINABILITY IN MARITIME TRANSPORT AND COASTAL STRUCTURES

Öz

This study examines the structural and sustainable transformations occurring in maritime transport and coastal structures in response to changing global dynamics. Technological advancements from the Industrial Revolution to the present have significantly influenced the traditional dynamics of maritime routes and coastal infrastructures. Increasing global warming is one of the primary factors intensifying the need for transformation in maritime and coastal systems. The global wave of change driven by efforts to combat climate change has become particularly evident in maritime transport through green port practices, digitalization, autonomous vessels, and energy-efficiency policies. In addition, Turkey’s geostrategic location, positioned at the center of international logistics corridors, provides a substantial advantage. However, to effectively utilize this strategic position, traditional methods must be integrated with next-generation technologies. Developing strong policies that ensure the effective implementation of this integration in the field is essential. In conclusion, sustainability-oriented approaches in maritime transport and coastal structures represent one of the most critical components shaping countries’ future logistics and transportation objectives.
