Climate change impacts on river discharge to the Sea of Marmara
Berkay Nüvit Basdurak
Abstract:The Sea of Marmara, located in Northwestern Türkiye, is under multiple stressors, including climate change and industrial, agricultural, and domestic pollution, that cause deoxygenation in coastal waters, with multiregional consequences affecting the surface and deep-water masses transported to the Mediterranean and Black Seas, respectively, via its straits. With climate-change driven changes in the intensity of extreme precipitation events, the marine environment becomes more vulnerable to increasing terrestr… Show more
