LeventProjected future changes in mean air temperature and precipitation for 2020 – 2050 were assessed with respect to the control period 1970 – 2000 via regional climate model simulations, using a regional climate model driven by three different global climate models, dynamically downscaled to 50 km for Turkey and surrounding regions, using the IPCC emission scenario outputs of global climate models.Yayın Assessment of projected changes in air temperature and precipitation over the Mediterranean region via multimodel ensemble mean of CMIP5 models(TÜDAV, 2015) Turp, M. Tufan; Öztürk, Tuğba; Türkeş, Murat; Kurnaz, M. LeventA multi-model ensemble mean approach was followed in order to investigate the projected changes in near surface air temperatures and precipitation total over the Mediterranean region. Among sixty seven different models of thirty modeling groups all around the world participating in the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5), fourteen models were used. In this respect, we focused on two distinct scenarios (i.e. RCP4.5 and RCP8.5) for three different future periods (i.e. 2016-2035, 2046-2065 and 2081-2100) to examine accurately the foreseen changes in two fundamental climate variables (near surface air temperature and precipitation total) for the Mediterranean region.Yayın Simulating the climatology of extreme events for the Central Asia domain using the RegCM 4.0 regional climate model(National and Kapodistrian University of Athens, 2012-05) Altınsoy, Hamza; Öztürk, Tuğba; Türkeş, Murat; Kurnaz, Mehmet Levent; Helmis, Konstantinos G.In this work, future changes in the frequency of the seasonal extreme climate events such as number, frequency, duration and intensity of heat waves (five consecutive temperature days above the maximum temperature calendar day 90th percentiles, number of days per year that is above the same percentiles and greatest number of consecutive days above these percentiles) for the period of 2071-2100 over Central Asia (18.56° – 70.13° East and 7.28° - 142.4° North) with respect to the present period of 1971-2000 were studied in detail. Regional Climate Model RegCM4.0 of Abdus Salam International Center for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) with ECHAM5 forcing data was used for hindcast and forecast projection. This region will very likely be affected by heat waves in winter and spring seasons and heat wave frequency, intensity and duration will increase sig-nificantly over the Arabian Peninsula in summer. On the other hand, cold spells will not change as much as heat waves over the region in all seasons.Yayın Assessment of simulated changes in air temperature and precipitation over the mediterranean region via multi-model ensemble means of CMIP5 models(Middle East Technical University, 2014-06-23) Turp, Mustafa Tufan; Öztürk, Tuğba; Türkeş, Murat; Kurnaz, Mehmet LeventIn this study, a multi-model ensemble mean approach was conducted in order to investigate the projected changes in near surface air temperatures and precipitation totals over the Mediterranean region. Among sixty seven different models of thirty modeling groups all around the world participating in the World Climate Research Programme (WCRP) Coupled Model Intercomparison Project (CMIP5), fourteen models were used. In this respect, we focused on two distinct scenarios (i.e. RCP4.5 and RCP8.5) for three different future periods (i.e. 2016-2035, 2046-2065 and 2081-2100) to examine accurately the foreseen changes in two fundamental climate variables (near surface air temperature and precipitation total) for the Mediterranean region.Yayın Avrupa'daki aşırı hava olaylarının öngörülen değişikliğinin ölçeklenebilirliği(Jeoloji Mühendisleri Odası Yayınları, 2024-04-19) Öztürk, Tuğba; Canbaz, Emine; Kurnaz, Mehmet Levent; Çan, Tolga; Tekin, Senem; Pınarcı, Emre; Kadakçı Koca, Tümay; Koçkar, Mustafa Kerem; Olgun, Şeyda; Güler, Cüneyt; Sarı, Erol; Tiringa, DenizBu çalışma, küresel ısınma seviyeleri ile Avrupa üzerinde aşırı hava olaylarının ölçeklenebilirliğini araştırmaktadır. Bu amaçla, EUROCORDEX 0,11° çözünürlüklü bölgesel iklim modeli projeksiyonlarının günlük minimum ve maksimum sıcaklık ve günlük yağış değişkenleri 1°C, 2 °C ve 3°C küresel ısınmaya yönelik aşırı hava olaylarının gelecekteki değişikliklerini analiz etmek için kullanılmıştır. Çeşitli ekstrem iklim indislerindeki değişime, her bir bölgesel iklim modelini koşmak için kullanılan küresel iklim modelinden elde edilen yıllık ortalama küresel sıcaklık değişimi ile basit bir ölçeklendirme yöntemi uygulanmıştır. Yüzyılın sonunda yıllık minimum günün en düşük sıcaklığı (TNn), yıllık maksimum günün en yüksek sıcaklığı (TXx) ile karşılaştırıldığında daha fazla artmaktadır. Yıllık maksimum günün en yüksek sıcaklığı (TXx) ve yıllık maksimum günün en düşük sıcaklığı (TNx) indislerinin ölçeklenmiş sinyallerindeki değişiklik, her iki aşırı iklim indisi de yaz mevsiminde meydana geldiğinden dolayı, Akdeniz Havzası ve Orta Avrupa’da daha yüksek ve Kuzey Avrupa’da daha az olmak üzere benzer alansal değişiklikler göstermektedir. Aynı şekilde, yıllık maksimum günün en düşük sıcaklığı (TXn) ve TNn kış mevsiminde meydana geldiği için her ikisi de kuzey kesimde daha yüksek bir artışla benzer bir alansal örüntü göstermektedir. Ayrıca bu çalışmada belirli ekstrem iklim indisleri ile ilgili olarak minimum ve maksimum sıcaklıklar ile nemli ve kurak kalıcı koşulların ölçekli örüntülerinin ortaya çıkışı da tespit edilmiştir. TNn indisinin ölçekli örüntülerinin ortaya çıkışı 2040 civarında gerçekleşirken, TXx indisinin ölçekli örüntülerinin ortaya çıkışı 2050 civarındadır. Bireysel GCM-RCM çiftleri, her iki indeks için de belirtilen zamanlardan başlayarak sabit alansal örüntülere sahip olma eğilimindedir. Tüm modellerden elde edilen ortalama örüntüler ise, bireysel modellerdendaha erken ortaya çıkmaktadır. 1 mm ve üstündeki yağışlı günlerde yıllık toplam yağış değerlerini içeren PRCPTOT indisinde ise tüm modellerin ortalamasını içeren sonuçlara göre yüzyılın sonunda Avrupa’nın kuzeyinde yoğun artış gözlenirken, Kuzey Afrika ülkeleri boyunca daha şiddetli olmak üzere Akdeniz’e kıyısı olan ülkelerde yağışlarda azalma öngörülmektedir.Yayın Investigation of projected changes for near future air temperature and precipitation climatology of Turkey and surrounding regions by using REGCM4.3.5(Middle East Technical University, 2014-06-23) Turp, Mustafa Tufan; Öztürk, Tuğba; Türkeş, Murat; Kurnaz, Mehmet LeventIn this study, projected future changes for the period of 2020 – 2050 in mean air temperature andprecipitation climatology and year-to-year variability with respect to the control period of 1970 –2000 were investigated for the domain of Turkey via regional climate model simulations. In orderto investigate the projected changes in near future climate conditions, Regional Climate Model (RegCM4.3.5) of ICTP (International Centre for Theoretical Physics) was driven by three differentglobal climate models. HadGEM2 global climate model of the Met Office Hadley Centre, MPI-ESMMR global climate model of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology, GFDL-ESM2M global climatemodel of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Geophysical Fluid DynamicsLaboratory were dynamically downscaled to 50 km for Turkey and its surrounding region. The projections were realized according to the RCP4.5 and the RCP8.5 emission scenarios of the IPCC(Intergovernmental Panel of Climate Change). According to the model results, there will be anincrease between 0.5 °C and 4 °C in mean air temperatures of Turkey for the period of 2020 –2050 with respect to the period of 1970 – 2000. This warming will be more severe in warm seasons than cold seasons. Changes varying from -0.4 mm/day to -1.2 mm/day in precipitationclimatology of Turkey are expected according to the regional climate model results.Yayın Simulations of future drought conditions in Central Asia CORDEX Region 8 by using RegCM 4.3.5(2015-01-14) Öztürk, Tuğba; Turp, Mustafa Tufan; Türkeş, Murat; Kurnaz, Mehmet LeventIn this work, projected future changes in mean surface air temperature and precipitation climatology, inter-annual and seasonal variability and climatic aridity/humidity conditions for the period 2070-2100 over the large Central Asia region with respect to present climate (from 1970 to 2000) were simulated based on the RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 emission scenarios. Regional Climate Model (RegCM4.3.5) of the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) was used for projections of future and present climate conditions. HadGEM2 global climate model of the Met Office Hadley Centre and MPI-ESM-MR global climate model of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology were downscaled to 50 km for the CORDEX Region 8. We investigated the seasonal time-scale performance of RegCM4.3.5 in reproducing observed climatology over the domain of Central Asia by using 2 different global climate model outputs. For the future climatology of the domain, the regional model predicts relatively high warming in the warm season and northern part of the domain at cold season with a decrease in precipitation almost all part of the domain. The results of our study show that surface temperatures in the region will increase from 3 °C up to more than 7 °C on average according to the emission scenarios for the period 2070-2100 with respect to past period 1970-2000. Therefore, the projected warming and decrease in precipitation and also resultant or associated increased aridity and more frequent and severe drought events very likely adversely affect the ecological and socio-economic systems of this region, which is already characterised with mostly arid and semi-arid climate and ecosystems.Yayın The Climate Change Impacts on the regional crop yield in Turkey(European Geosciences Union (EGU), 2015-04-17) An, Nazan; Turp, Mustafa Tufan; Öztürk, Tuğba; Kurnaz, Mehmet LeventThis paper emphasizes the relationship between climate change and crop yield in Turkey and discusses how the variables representing the climate change impacts affect the regional crop yield in Turkey. The impacts of climate change are represented as the function of vulnerability for the period of 1980-2010. There are 2 steps in this research. Firstly, regional climate modeling is conducted for obtaining to the climatic parameters, namely total precipitation and mean air temperature. We focus on the role of those climatic variables on the crop yield. The projections were performed according to the scenarios of IPCC, namely RCP4.5 and the RCP8.5. According to the regional model results, it is seen that there will be an increase up to the 4 ◦C in mean air temperatures of Turkey for the period of 2020 – 2050 with respect to the period of 1970 – 2000 and also precipitation climatology of Turkey shows a decrease up to 1.2 mm/day. In the second part of the study, climatic parameters are combined and interpreted together through the panel data analysis and we examined that how the variables representing the climate change impacts have an influence on the crop yield in the some crucial regions for the crop production of Turkey. Estimated risks for crops in the panel data analysis differ from each other resulting from increase in temperature and decrease in rainfall.Yayın Projections for changes in natural and technical snow reliability of a major Turkish ski resort by using RegCM4.3.5(European Geosciences Union (EGU), 2014-05-02) Öztürk, Tuğba; Demiroğlu, Osman Cenk; Turp, Mustafa Tufan; Türkeş, Murat; Kurnaz, Mehmet LeventClimate change has been and increasingly will be a major threat to the ski tourism industry whose survival is highly dependent on existence of snow cover of sufficient depth and duration. The common knowledge requires that in order for a ski resort to be viable, it has to perform operations for at least 100 days in seven out of ten winters. For this matter, it is now even more usual for the ski resorts to adapt to this issue by technical snowmaking. In this study, projected future changes for the period of 2010-2040, 2040-2070, and 2070-2100 in air temperature, relative humidity, and snow depth climatology and variability with respect to the control period of 1970-2000 were assessed for the domain of a major ski resort in Turkey. Regional Climate Model (RegCM4.3.5) of ICTP (International Centre for Theoretical Physics) was used for projections of future and present climate conditions. HadGEM2 global climate model of the Met Office Hadley Centre, MPI-ESM-MR of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology, GFDL-ESM2M of the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory were downscaled to 10 km for the resort and its surrounding region. Both the projections and the downscaling were realized according to the RCP4.5 and the RCP8.5 emission scenarios of the IPCC. The outputs on snow depth were used for a count of the changes on snow cover duration sufficient for skiing actitivies, signaling natural snow-reliability, whereas the outputs on air temperature and relative humidity were utilized for determination of wet-bulb temperatures. The latter measure was used to interpret the changes in the snowmaking capacity, in other words; technical snow-reliability, of the resort.Yayın A refined methodology for modelling climate change impacts on snow sports tourism(European Geosciences Union (EGU), 2015-04-17) Demiroğlu, Osman Cenk; Turp, Mustafa Tufan; Öztürk, Tuğba; An, Nazan; Kurnaz, Mehmet LeventNature-based tourism is one of the most vulnerable sectors of the economy against climate change. Among its types, winter tourism stands out as the most critical due to the relatively high exposure and sensitivity of snow cover to the anthropogenic warming trends. In this study, we aim at improving previous works by Ozturk et al. where snow reliability of ski resorts have been examined through projections based on regional climate model outputs downscaled from various GCMs. Major improvements to these studies will be related to increasing the resolution, obtaining snow depth values from snow-water equivalent outputs, and hourly, instead of the daily, calculations of wet bulb temperatures. Daily snow depth values will be utilized for 100-days rule that looks for at least 100 days of snow cover at a minimum of 30 cm in order for a ski resort to be viable, whereas the wet bulb temperatures below -7 oC will indicate the snowmaking capacity. The domain of analysis will be the Balkans, the Middle East and the Caucasus. Therefore the spatial gap in the mostly Euro- and Amero-centric literature will also be improved. The domain will be modelled through RegCM 4.4.2 of the International Centre for Theoretical Physics basing its resolution on MPI-ESM-MR of Max Planck Institut für Meteorologie and the concentration scenario RCP 4.5 for a realistic tourism development future of 2020-2050.
