Redefining the climate zones of turkey using cluster analysis
TL;DR: In this paper, the mathematical methodology of cluster analysis was used to define seven different climate zones of Turkey, as in conventional climate zones, but with considerable differences at the boundaries, and the stability of the clusters was also tested.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climate change in Turkey for the last half century
TL;DR: In this paper, climate change and its urban-induced bias in selected Turkish cities is studied with a quality controlled temperature and precipitation data of Turkish stations in the period of 1950-2004.
Journal ArticleDOI
Climatic effects of urbanization in Istanbul : a statistical and modeling analysis
TL;DR: In this article, the Mann-Kendall trend test was applied to minimum temperature data from stations located in urban, suburban and rural areas in Istanbul to determine the existence and significance of trends, and the approximate years in which changes in the trends started.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of urbanization on climate of İstanbul and Ankara
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of urbanization on climates of two largest cities in Turkey: Istanbul and Ankara are analyzed to study regional climate change and to understand the possible effects on the climate of these regions owing to industrialization and large flux of migration from rural parts of the country.
Journal ArticleDOI
Forecast of daily mean, maximum and minimum temperature time series by three artificial neural network methods
TL;DR: In this article, the authors forecast daily mean, maximum and minimum temperature time series employing three different artificial neural network (ANN) methods and provided the best-fit prediction with the observed actual data using ANN algorithms.
