Tan, Mustafa; Yolcu, Halil
Forage crops cultivation area in Turkey is 2.312 million ha in 2020. The rate of forage cultivation in the total agricultural area is 6.1%, and its rate in the field land is 12.3%. Lucerne, silage corn, oat, vetch, and sainfoin are main forage crops in Turkey. The amount of produced is 16.8 million tons of hay and 48.8 thousand tons of seeds. The forage crop cultivation areas have increased by 206% since the beginning of the 2000s due to the government subsidies. However, shortage of quality roughage is still a big problem for animal husbandry of the country. For this reason, new strategies should be developed to increase forage cultivation areas by considering global warming, drought, and climate change. In order to meet the need for roughage, it is necessary to expand the cultivation area of forage crops as winter catch crops and second crops. In addition, some of the fallow fields should be utilized by growing drought-resistant forage species. The fields abandoned due to different problems should be used for the cultivation of suitable forage crops.

Akyol, Mehmet; Mete, Emrullah
Global warming and climate change, caused by greenhouse gas emissions, have compelled all countries to reconsider their production factors. Developing technologies to reduce emission volumes has been one of the priority targets for countries. This study investigated the impact of environmental technological innovations on CO2 emissions in 18 OECD members. The panel generalized method of moments (GMM)was employed in the study to produce estimates for the period between 2005 and 2018. Energy consumption, economic growth (GDP), and technological innovation data were used as independent variables in the study, CO2 emissions were used as dependent variable, whereas the number of patents preventing climate change was used as a technological innovation indicator. The analysis results showed that a 1% increase in patent applications for preventing climate change reduced CO2 emissions by 0.02%. However, a 1% increase in energy consumption caused an increase of 0.56% in CO2 emissions. Finally, the 1% increase in the GDP growth rate caused an increase of 0.002% in CO2 emissions.

Şan, Murat; Akçay, Fatma; Linh, Nguyen Thi Thuy; Kankal, Murat; Pham, Quoc Bao
It is a known fact that the size, frequency, and spatial variability of hydrometeorological variables will irregularly increase under the impact of climate change. Among the hydrometeorological variables, rainfall is one of the most important. Trend analysis is one of the most effective methods of observing the effects of climate change on rainfall. Recently, new graphical methods have been proposed as an alternative to classical trend analysis methods. Innovative Polygon Trend Analysis (IPTA), which evolved from Innovative Trend Analysis (ITA), is currently one of the proposed methods and it does not contain any assumptions. The aim of this study is to compare IPTA, ITA with the Significance Test and Mann-Kendall (MK) methods. To achieve this, the monthly total rainfall trends of 15 stations in the Vu Gia-Thu Bon River Basin (VGTBRB) of Vietnam have been examined for the period 1979–2016. The analyses show that rainfall tends to increase (decrease) in March (June) at nearly all stations. IPTA and ITA with the Significance Test are more sensitive than MK in determining the trends. While trends were detected in approximately 90% of all months in IPTA and ITA with the Significance Test, this rate was only 23% in the MK test. Although the arithmetic mean graphs in the 1-year hydrometeorological cycle are considerably regular at almost all stations, their standard deviations are relatively irregular. The most critical month for trend transitions between consecutive months for all the stations is October, which has an average trend slope of −1.35 and a trend slope ranging from −3.98 to −0.21, which shows a decreasing trend.

Advances in remote sensing technology enable monitoring and detection of these vulnerable water bodies that bear numerous functions and ecological services beyond their intended use. As such, valuable data and information may be provided for long and short-term analyses and stored in a database for future projections. This paper initially grouped 18 natural lakes of the Konya Closed Basin of Turkey according to their salinity level. Freshwater, saline and brackish lakes have then undergone temporal analysis for every 5-year intervals via Landsat satellite images. Freshwater lake surfaces have not changed noticeably during the inspection period; however, saline waters have decreased in surface area by 32%. Beysehir Lake constituting 94% of the freshwater category and Tuz Lake representing 97% of the saline group were selected for the short-term analysis that was monthly conducted for years 2017 and 2018 with optical and SAR images to better verify cause and effect relationship.

Adali, Zafer; Korkmaz, Özge; Çelik, Orkun
In social sciences, especially in the economic literature, energy has been one of the most important topics. Energy seems to be dominant on the political and economic agendas because of nearly all economic activities linked to energy. Hence, all economies have endeavored to detect and implement policies to increase their efficiency and mitigate energy’s detrimental effects on the earth. This study’s principal mission is to check the connection between economic growth, non-renewable and renewable energy consumption in ASEAN-5 countries over 1990–2014 to recommend energy-saving policies. Within this view, bootstrap panel Granger causality test is applied. The model results indicate that economic growth causes renewable energy consumption in the Philippines and economic growth induces non-renewable energy consumption in Indonesia and Malaysia. A unidirectional causality relationship operating from renewable energy consumption to economic growth is approved for Brunei Darussalam. Finally, a unidirectional causality relationship working from renewable energy consumption to Brunei Darussalam’s economic growth is confirmed.

Celen, P.; Erdem, H.H.
In lignite (low-rank coal)-fired thermal power plants, thermal efficiency can be improved by decreasing the lignite moisture. The lignite moisture can be removed by using superheated steam and hot air as drying fluids. In this study, Turkish (Afşin-Elbistan) lignite having a diameter of 30 mm was dried with superheated steam and hot air at temperatures of 117°C under atmospheric pressure. The changes in its weight and temperature with time were observed, and the drying characteristics were obtained during the drying process. In the first period of drying, which is called heating period, the drying rate of superheated steam is higher than hot air in contrary to during constant-rate period. Moreover, the experiments revealed that less time is required to heat lignite sample with superheated steam compared to hot air.

Hisoglu, Seyit; Comert, R.; Karas, I.R.; Ben Ahmed, M.; Boudhir, A.A.; Ane, B.K.
Energy sources are divided into renewable and non-renewable sources. It can be seen that non-renewable energy resources are not adequately meeting the increased demands of worldwide technological developments, increasing population, and global consumption. Therefore, the demand for renewable resources is increasing day by day. When it comes to the use of non-renewable carbon-based fossil fuels, one of the first areas that come to mind is undoubtedly the Automotive sector. Today, it is realized that one of the main reasons for the lack of electric motor cars compared to petroleum fuelled cars, is the scarcity of electric vehicle charging stations and the difficulty of their accessibility. In this study; an analysis of solar-powered electric charging stations site selection was carried out for electric vehicles. The Ankara-Istanbul highway, which has a high traffic density, was chosen as the sample route for the study. Within the scope of the study, the areas where stations can be installed on the highway were carried out using the Multi-Criteria Decision Making Method with the help of Geographic Information System. Solar radiation, slope, aspect, land use/land cover, traffic volume and proximity to the road, criteria of the route, and site selection analysis were determined as input data. The maps of the determined criteria were arranged according to the study area and prepared for analysis. The criteria maps obtained were reclassified according to the above-mentioned criteria and scoring system. After the reclassification process, the weighting of each criteria which affect the analysis was determined by the researched literature and an overlapping process was carried out. According to the results map produced as a result of the overlay analysis, the appropriate area has been determined for the electric charging stations working with solar energy. On the defined route within the scope of the study, a proposal has been made for a total of 13 stations, 8 in Ankara, 3 in Bolu, 1 in Kocaeli, and 1 in Istanbul. This study, it is aimed to encourage automobile users to make greater use of electric motor vehicles, which would be a more environmentally friendly and sustainable choice, and ultimately more economical.
- MakaleYalnız künye2021A copula approach for sea level anomaly prediction: a case study for the Black Sea
Yavuzdoğan, Ahmet; Tanır Kayıkçı, Emine
Forecasting future sea levels is of great importance in terms of the conservation of coastal areas, monitoring and forecasting coastal ecosystems, and the maintenance and planning of coastal structures. In addition, highly accurate sea level forecasts allow adequate water management policies and coastal infrastructures to be developed. Today, many methods, such as harmonic analyses, artificial neural networks and support vector machines, are used to predict sea level anomalies. In this study, a novel approach based on Copula functions is presented for the prediction of sea level anomalies. The primary purpose of this study is to examine the applicability and capability of Copula-based prediction models in predicting short-term variations in the sea level. The minimum 95% correlations and minimum 22 mm RMSE values in sea level anomaly predictions during the testing period indicate that the Copula approach can be a powerful tool in the prediction of sea level anomalies.

Erol, Ismail; Peker, Iskender; Ar, Ilker Murat; Turan, İsmet; Searcy, Cory
Novel business models can be implemented through digital platforms to enable better circular economy (CE) performance in the renewable energy industry. For example, blockchain can assist in developing innovative business models throughout the solar photovoltaic energy ecosystem (SPVEE) to improve CE. Ranked fifth in total installed photovoltaic (PV) capacity, Turkey, as a developing country, should take the necessary steps and make progress towards achieving CE in the SPVEE. The solar PV industry requires further innovation to address the negative environmental impact of existing linear business models. To ensure favorable results, identifying and evaluating critical success factors (CSFs) are necessary. However, no study has investigated CSFs for SPVEE or any other renewable energy source to achieve a blockchain-based infrastructure towards increased CE performance. Therefore, the goal of this study is to identify and examine the CSFs to improve the performance of a blockchain-based SPVEE towards CE in Turkey. To this end, first, the CSFs for blockchain-based SPVEE were identified through both a literature review and the Nominal Group Technique (NGT). Then, Intuitionistic Fuzzy (IF)-DEMATEL was used to explore their interrelationships based on the expert data. Finally, IF-DELPHI was employed to validate the results. Our findings suggested that effective government incentive programs and regulations are significant for blockchain-based SPVEE towards CE in Turkey. The findings of this study assist macro and micro decision-making in the potential implementation of blockchain in Turkish SPVEE to improve CE. They are also invaluable for other countries and can be used as a reference point.
- MakaleAçık Erişim2021A data-driven multi-regime approach for predicting energy consumption
Kahraman, Abdulgani; Kantardzic, Mehmed; Kahraman, Mustafa; Kotan, Muhammed
There has been increasing interest in reducing carbon footprints globally in recent years. Hence increasing share of green energy and energy efficiency are promoted by governments. There-fore, optimizing energy consumption is becoming more critical for people, companies, industries, and the environment. Predicting energy consumption more precisely means that future energy management planning can be more effective. To date, most research papers have focused on predicting residential building energy consumption; however, a large portion of the energy is consumed by industrial machines. Prediction of energy consumption of large industrial machines in real time is challenging due to concept drift, in which prediction performance deteriorates over time. In this research, a novel data-driven method multi-regime approach (MRA) was developed to better predict the energy consumption for industrial machines. Whereas most papers have focused on finding an excellent prediction model that contradicts the no-free-lunch theorem, this study concentrated on adding potential concept drift points into the prediction process. A real-world dataset was collected from a semi-autonomous grinding (SAG) mill used as a data source, and a deep neural network was utilized as a prediction model for the MRA method. The results proved that the MRA method enables the detection of multi-regimes over time and provides a highly accurate prediction performance, thanks to the dynamic model approach.

Yamak, Beyzanur; Yagci, Zekeriya; Bilgilioglu, Burhan Baha; Comert, Resul
Today, industrialization and urbanization in large cities cause an increase in the surfaces covered with man-made objects such as concrete and asphalt. The expansion of urban areas and increase in the using materials with high heat storage properties, directly affect the Land Surface Temperature (LST), which shows an increase in the sensible temperature of the region. LST is directly connected to the natural green vegetation of the land and varies widely in large urban areas, these differences related to the temperature is defined as the ‘urban heat island’. In this study, it was investigated the temporal variation of land surface temperature due to urbanization. Bursa, which is considered as a study area, has shown a rapid population increase since 1990 and a rapid increase in the number of buildings with the impact of urbanization and industrialisation. To determine the effect of this urbanization and industrialisation on land surface temperature, temporal change analysis of the surface temperature in the Bursa was observed with Landsat satellite images of 1988, 1998, 2008 and 2018. From produced maps, it was observed that the amount of green vegetation in urban areas decreased and as a consequence of this decrease, the surface temperature increased in the urban areas.

The present study aims to determine priority areas for installation of wave energy converters (WECs) in a semi-enclosed sea using a multi-criteria, spatial, decision-making analysis based on geographical information systems (GIS). The study also suggests a new methodology for determination of suitable areas for WECs taking into consideration different extreme wave conditions, intra-annual variation of wave conditions, and operational range of wave conditions by the WECs. A case study over a distance of 1140 km along the coast in the southwest Black Sea is presented. In the multi-criteria analysis, areas with environmental, economic, technical and social constraints are excluded. Ocean depth, distance to ports, shore, power line, and sub-station, wave climate, and sea-floor geology are all evaluated for their impact on the system implementation and weighted according to their relevance. Thus, the final suitability index (SI) map is produced and spatial statistical significance of the suitable areas is checked using hotspot analysis. Based on this, Kırklareli coastal area and the area between İğneada Cape and Kıyıköy village are determined as primary priority areas. The sustainability parameters with different weights proposed in this study do not differentiate priority areas but affect the SI scores.

Koç, Pınar; Gülmez, Ahmet
Analyzing the relationship between nanotechnology applications, mineral saving, and environmental degradation is important to achieve sustainable development goals. However, in the literature, no study empirically examines the interaction among nanotechnology applications, mineral saving, and environmental degradation. This study addresses this significant gap in the literature by investigating the impacts of nanotechnology applications on mineral saving and the ecological footprint in 9 countries (Australia, Canada, China, France, Japan, Korea, Russia, Sweden, and the USA) in the period 1990–2017 using the combined panel fourier fractional cointegration and panel fractional fourier causality test. According to the causality test results based on group statistics, there is a Granger causality from nanotechnology applications to mineral saving. Also, there is causality from mineral saving to ecological footprint. The estimations of the causality based on individual statistics show no causality linkage between nanotechnology applications and mineral saving in the countries, excluding Australia and France. Canada, China, France, and Sweden are countries with unilateral causality from nanotechnology applications to ecological footprint. In the other countries, except China, Japan, and the USA, mineral saving doesn't Granger cause ecological footprint. The long-run findings show a positive impact of nanotechnology applications on mineral saving and ecological footprint. These findings are valid for all countries. In this context, it can be concluded that nanotechnology applications are essential for resource-saving. But, to save resources, the authorities should focus on controlling and measuring nanoparticle emissions.

Su, insan yaşamı için temel ihtiyaçlardan biridir. Dolayısıyla akarsu havzaları diğer alanlara göre daha fazla nüfuslanmıştır. Çalışma sahasını oluşturan Melet Irmağı’nın orta ve aşağı çığırı da yoğun nüfuslu alanlardan biridir. Havzada nüfusun artması arazi kullanımında da değişmelere sebep olmuştur. Bu çalışmanın amacı, 2002-2015 yılları arasında, çalışma alanında meydana gelen arazi kullanımı değişimlerini coğrafi açıdan incelemektir. Melet Irmağı yukarı çığırından Topçam Boğazı ile ayrılan araştırma sahası, Karadeniz Bölgesi’nin Orta ve Doğu bölümleri arasında yer almakta ve yaklaşık 865 km2 yüz ölçüme sahip bulunmaktadır.Bu çalışmada Coğrafi Bilgi Sistemleri, Uzaktan Algılama yöntemleri ve arazi incelemeleri bir arada kullanılmıştır. Arazi kullanımındaki zamansal değişim 18 Ekim 2002 tarihli Landsat 7 TM uydu görüntüsü ve 28 Eylül 2015 tarihli Landsat 8 OLI/ TIRS uydu görüntüsü ile arazi çalışmaları sırasında elde edilen veriler karşılaştırılarak belirlenmiştir. Bu amaçla United States Geological Survey’in web sitesinden çalışma alanına ait Landsat uydu görüntüleri temin edilmiştir. ENVI 5.1 programı yardımıyla uzaktan algılama analizleri yapılmış, elde edilen sonuçlar ArcGIS 10.2 programı kullanılarak haritalanmıştır.Yapılan incelemeler sonucunda, 2002-2015 yılları arasında araştırma sahasındaki ormanların 103 km2 alan kaybettiği, tarım arazilerinin ise 122,9 km2 alan kazandığı anlaşılmıştır. Nitekim saha çalışmaları sırasında ormanların ve meraların tahrip edildiği, yerlerine fındık ve kivi bahçelerinin kurulduğu gözlenmiştir. Doğal bitki örtüsüne zarar veren ve erozyonu destekleyen bu olaylar, yabani hayvanların yaşam alanlarını da sınırlamaktadır. Bu nedenle, çalışma alanının doğal bitki örtüsü, yaban hayatı varlığı ve tarımsal faaliyetleri birlikte değerlendirilmeli ve sürdürülebilir bir kullanım yöntemi geliştirilmelidir.
