Projections for changes in climatology and extreme events of the Cordex-Australasia domain :|a dynamical downscaling approach

Turp, Mustafa Tufan. (Thesis (Ph.D.) - Bogazici University. Institute of Environmental Sciences, 2021., 2021.)

Climate change, which is one of the most vital threats to humanity today, will affect many countries on a regional and local scale in terms of common and country-specific areas. In order to adapt to the changing climate, ...
Agricultural decision-making in Turkey from climate change perspective :|a new road map for the period of 2021-2050

An, Nazan. (Thesis (Ph.D.) - Bogazici University. Institute of Environmental Sciences, 2020., 2020.)

The expectation that it can affect basic life resources and particularly food security on a global, regional, and local scale with its impact on the ecosystem has made climate change one of the most urgent issues on the ...
Dynamic simulation model for long term comprehensive environmental analysis of GAP

Saysel, Ali Kerem. (Thesis (Ph.D.)- Bogazici University. Institute of Environmental Sciences, 1999., 1999.)

Sustainability assessment of selected dairy farms using social multi criteria approach

Kabasakal Güzeloğlu, Leyla. (Thesis (Ph.D.) - Bogazici University. Institute of Environmental Sciences, 2019., 2019.)

Turkish dairy industry is being modernized and there are many successful examples. Big farms are supported while ecologic and social factors can often be overlooked. Objective of the research is to quantify sustainability ...
Phylogeography of the large mouse-eared bats in Turkish thrace and Anatolia

Çelik, Yalın Emek. (Thesis (Ph.D.) - Bogazici University. Institute of Environmental Sciences, 2020., 2020.)

The main objective of this study is to determine the exact number of species/subspecies within the Large Mouse-eared Bat Complex that inhabit Anatolia and the Turkish Thrace. In this study we also explore the historical ...
