![]() Permanent planning should be created in order to ensure that this situation does not cause irremediable problems in the future. While forest areas were decreased by 98%, the residential areas increased by 36%. The greatest change on surface texture happened in forest areas. The coastline decreased by 17 km (38.63%) in this period and was reduced to 27 km. A decrease of 5.83 km2 (27%) in the lake area took place in the 27-year period from 1987 to 2014. The residential areas were seen to expand especially towards the area where the lake is located. ![]() In the study, natural conditions in Büyükçekmece Lake and its surroundings have been found to undergo a major change in the last few decades as a result of human activities. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and Remote Sensing (RS) methods and techniques were used in the study. This study examined the effects of changes in the surface cover that occurred in Büyükçekmece Lake and its immediate surroundings on geography and particularly on topography. ![]() Once again, this study puts forward the benefits of remote sensing in urban growth and environmental management This is the most negative situation evident in Duzce. Furthermore, settlement areas were developed to a considerable extent in the last 9 years but this development took place in Duzce Plain which is largely used as agricultural area. As a result of the conducted research, it is seen that the forest area has been protected over 22 years, 63% of the land is covered with trees including hazelnut fields. In this study, remote sensing was utilized to ascertain whether urbanization damaged areas in one of the greenest provinces of Turkey, how the land was used, and, particularly, how the plains that could be used as agricultural areas were used. ![]() Without prudential planning, the natural environment could not be protected. With the economic development and construction in Turkey, forests, agricultural as well as green areas have been damaged. Duzce is a richly forested province of Turkey located in the west part of the Black Sea Region. ![]()
