Abstract

Abstract İçmeler Bay’ recreational coast, Dilek Peninsula Büyük Menderes Delta National Park, was surveyed to determine visitor-sourced litter types and cleanliness levels. Litter types and pollution were compared in terms of recreational uses and esthetic quality. Visitors rated the offensiveness of 17 several litter items that were found in the Bay. Finally, visitors evaluated the cleanliness and crowdedness of the Bay and the adequacy of trash cans. Litters were counted at 192 samplings, and 384 questionnaires were completed from July to August 2018. The results indicate that OR (Organic litter) (53.14%) and PL (plastic) (29.06%) were the common litter material in the litter composition. The cleanliness level was C (Dirty) (grades on A-D). A weakly significant negative correlation (r = –0.463, p = 0.000) was found between the offensiveness ranks of the litter types and the abundance of these litter types in the park. The park was dirty (69%), crowded (72.7%), and the numbers of facilities were insufficient (59.4%) according to most visitors. For minimizing the environmental and social impacts of littering, it is considered that the visitor management plan should be prepared urgently and littering management actions should be defined in this plan. Eight categories of direct and indirect management actions are recommended.

游客来源的污染和沿海国家公园的审美质量:以土耳其迪莱克半岛b yy k门德雷斯三角洲国家公园为例

以Dilek半岛b y k Menderes三角洲国家公园İçmeler湾休闲海岸为研究对象，调查了游客来源的垃圾类型和清洁水平。在娱乐用途和审美质量方面比较了垃圾类型和污染。游客对在海湾发现的17种垃圾进行了评级。最后，游客们对海湾的清洁度和拥挤程度以及垃圾桶是否充足进行了评价。2018年7 - 8月，共采集192个样本，统计凋落物，完成问卷384份。结果表明:在凋落物组成中，有机凋落物(OR)占53.14%，塑料凋落物(PL)占29.06%;清洁程度为C(脏)(等级为A-D)。凋落物类型的冒犯性等级与林内凋落物类型的丰度呈弱显著负相关(r = -0.463, p = 0.000)。大多数游客表示，公园脏(69%)、拥挤(72.7%)、设施数量不足(59.4%)。为了尽量减少乱扔垃圾对环境和社会的影响，我们认为应紧急制定游客管理计划，并在该计划中规定乱扔垃圾的管理行动。建议采取八类直接和间接管理行动。

期刊介绍： Coastal Management is an international peer-reviewed, applied research journal dedicated to exploring the technical, applied ecological, legal, political, social, and policy issues relating to the use of coastal and ocean resources and environments on a global scale. The journal presents timely information on management tools and techniques as well as recent findings from research and analysis that bear directly on management and policy. Findings must be grounded in the current peer reviewed literature and relevant studies. Articles must contain a clear and relevant management component. Preference is given to studies of interest to an international readership, but case studies are accepted if conclusions are derived from acceptable evaluative methods, reference to comparable cases, and related to peer reviewed studies.
