Abstract:

 


The
coastal areas offer natural, cultural, economic and aesthetic facilities and
they are distinguished by their significant functions such as creating habitat
for urban flora-fauna at the city center and the environment close to it,
giving people the recreation opportunity, regulating the urban ecology. The
Akkaya dam in the Niğde region is an example. The presence of Akkaya dam birds
on the migration route and the reed areas around the dam are places frequented
by migratory birds. Not only bird species but also different species of fish
are hosted. The dam is used for irrigation of agricultural lands used for human
beings, in order to meet the water needs of wild animals, grazing in the
region. However, increasing pollution of dam water creates adverse effects
particularly on the animals. The aim of the study is to determine the potential
effects of Akkaya Dam on the living creatures and offer suggestions about it. Sampling
will be made by using geographic information systems (GIS). In the light of this
information, landscape development areas will be created for natural
conservation, landscape restoration, and visual landscape improvements and
planning of recreational potential of dam lake, data will be evaluated and
alternative solutions options for the area will be proposed.
