Özet:

 


The Göksu Delta, located on the Mediterranean coast in the South Anatolia, is the most significant
wetland both in Turkey and Eastern Mediterranean region. The delta environments present suitable reproduction
and living conditions for large numbers of continental migratory birds and aquatic species under protection. The
eastern shoreline of the delta has been retreating for the last fifty years, whereas recent mouth of the delta progrades
toward the gorge of the lagoon. In addition, the lagoons are filled by deposits of crevasse splay, dune and
barrier islands deposits by aeolian effects. Dynamic processes in the delta environment were investigated in
detail, to explain the causes of retrograding and prograding of the shoreline of the delta and to find possible solutions.
According to the data obtained, the natural fluvial system, the shoreline dynamics, and the aeolian processes
in the delta have been changed by the anthropogenic effects. The persistence of the variation of the shoreline
will cause significant ecological disruption of the delta.
