Öğe Ecotourism importance of Sumela Monastery in Trabzon, Turkey(WFL Publisher Ltd., 2014) Gülgün B.; Yazici K.; Dikmen A.; Dursun S.With the developing of the ecotourism concept worldwide, local and foreign tourists, individual and small groups wish to be away from the sea-sandsun trio, in touch with nature and see natural and cultural assets in situ. Ecotourism, which is not limited to a certain season, includes rural and cultural tourism elements and is seen as the most appropriate tourism type that can be developed in natural and cultural areas. Sumela Monastery, is also known as the Virgin Mary Monastery, has an important position in our country with its natural and cultural assets. The monastery is within the boundaries of Trabzon province, Maçka district. The site, which is approximately 300 m above the valley, continues the tradition of building monasteries out of the city, in the forest, near caves and by the banks of waters. Sumela Monastery is assessed in terms of ecotourism, taking into account the contribution made to the country and consequently to the region in terms of economic input.Öğe Effects of outdoor ornamental plants on the environment İn accordance with theİr intended use: The case of Tokat city center(International Multidisciplinary Scientific Geoconference, 2015) Gülgün B.; Yazici K.; Dursun S.Ornamental plants are important design materials in landcape architecture work. Their use is of importance not only for their aesthetic effects but also for their functional properties. In an environment where green spaces have largely been destroyed and concrete structures have increased in number, the functional use of plants comes to the fore. The plant texture in urban spaces has a function that stabilizes the building and people. Therefore, plants provide the necessary balance of mass-gap in the urban fabric. It is necessary that design principles be followed while choosing the plants used in open-green spaces. Plants perform their visual and functional effects in spaces where plantation work is done in accordance with the principles concerned, thus making urban spaces liveable for people. This study discusses the functional and aesthetic effects of ornamental plants with samples of plants in green spaces in the center in the sample of Tokat. © SGEM 2015.Öğe An examination of the effects of land use changes on nature conservation rulings in Çeşme peninsula, Turkey(2009) Gülgün B.; Türkyilmaz B.; Bolca M.; Özen F.Because of their intense vegetation and the fact that they include areas of coastline, deltas situated in the vicinity of big cities are areas of great attraction for people who wish to get away from in a crowded city. However, coasts, with their fertile soil and unique flora and fauna, need to be protected. In order for the use of such areas to be planned in a sustainable way by local authorities, there is a need for detailed data about these regions. In this study, the changes in land use of the area between Topburnu and Uçburun Musa Bey Harbour on the Çeşme peninsula, which is to the immediate west of Turkey's third largest city İzmir, from 1976 up to the present day, were investigated. In the study, using aerial photographs taken in 1976, 1995 and 2000 and an IKONOS satellite image from the year 2007, the natural and cultural characteristics of the region and changes in the coastline were determined spatially. Using aerial photographs from 1976, 1995 and 2000 and an IKONOS satellite image from the year 2007, together with "1/25,000 scale Conservation-Oriented Development Plans" prepared in 1979, 1990 and 2000 by the committee for the Preservation of Natural and Cultural Entities attached to the Ministry of Culture and Tourism of the Turkish Republic, the natural and cultural characteristics of the region and the land use changes and their connection with conservation rulings were determined spatially. In this study, spatial changes in land use over the years were compared with changing conservation rulings over the years and the emerging results have brought a new perspective to the subject in contrast to other similar studies. © Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2008.Öğe Forest plantation and alternative utilization of some cultivated plants in Turkey(International Multidisciplinary Scientific Geoconference, 2015) Gülgün B.; Yazici K.; Dursun S.; Balik G.Despite the fact that the size of the “industrial forest plantation”, which is also known as “tree agriculture”, is merely 5% of the world’s forests, 35% of wood raw material production is from these areas. This, in turn, increases the importance of tree agriculture. In Turkey, around 35 106 m3 of wood raw material is consumed annually. Yet, the production power of our natural forests is around 18 106 m3 today. Consequently, Turkey imports the raw material she cannot meet by her own means. For this reason, the quest of Turkey for raw material brought the use of new plant species appropriate for this purpose to the agenda. In this research, the physiological structures and utilization characteristics in landscaping and industrial sectors of some natural plant species used in Turkey’s forest plantation are assessed. As well as this point, the utilizations of some cultivated plants that may alternatively will be used in forest plantation are also assessed. © SGEM2015.Öğe Tokat and Amasya cities monumental trees as natural heritage(International Multidisciplinary Scientific Geoconference, 2015) Gülgün B.; Yazici K.; Dursun S.Monumental trees divide in four groups as historical, mystical, folkloric and dimensional monumental trees. Dimensional monumental trees should be distinctive on the basis of species and habitat, and they should live long enough (at least 100 years) to link up the generations. Additionally some trees can have some qualifications other than normal image of the species which can be so valuable and must be protected but unless they have historical, mystical, folkloric and dimensional characteristic they can’t be announced as monumental trees. This study examines the monumental trees in the cities of Amasya and Tokat that are in Central Black Sea Region. There are 5 dimensional monumental tress in Amasya and 6 dimensional trees in Tokat. In this study, the link that the monumental trees establish between the past and the future has been emphasized and the negative factors about the maintenance of the monumental trees have been evaluated. As a result of the evaluations; solutions to carry the monumental trees as healthy natural heritage elements to the future have been suggested. © SGEM 2015.
