The effects of dead and living cover on surface runoff and soil erosion will be investigated through the project supported by TUBITAK at Bartın University's Faculty of Forestry.

The project titled "Determining the Singular and Integrated Effects of Dead and Living Cover on Surface Runoff and Soil Erosion" prepared under the leadership of Dr. Research Assistant Hüseyin ŞENSOY, a faculty member of the Department of Forest Engineering at Bartın University's Faculty of Forestry, has been deemed worthy of support within the scope of the TUBITAK 1002-A Rapid Support Program. Associate Professor İlyas BOLAT and Research Assistant Kamil ÇAKIROĞLU, faculty members of the Department of Forest Engineering, are also involved as researchers in the project.

 

Providing information about the project within the scope, ŞENSOY stated, "Through the project, the integrated and independent effects of forest cover components on surface runoff and potential soil erosion occurring after rainfall under forest cover will be investigated with numerical data. The effects of dead and living cover characteristics on surface runoff and soil erosion under forest cover have not been detailed with field data under Turkish conditions. When the materials used, the proposed methodology, and the targeted outcomes are evaluated together, this planned study is of national significance as it is the first of its kind."

 

Highlighting the increasingly gratifying level of TUBITAK-supported projects at Bartın University's Faculty of Forestry in recent years and emphasizing the importance of sustaining this trend, Dean of the Faculty of Forestry, Prof. Dr. Birsen DURKAYA, congratulated the project team along with project leader Dr. Research Assistant Hüseyin ŞENSOY.
