I am seeking to establish research partnerships within international consortia addressing climate-resilient forest systems, with a particular interest in landscape-scale climate adaptation, ecosystem resilience, and sustainable land management.
I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Landscape Architecture at Bursa Technical University, Türkiye. My research background encompasses sustainable landscape planning, blue-green infrastructure, nature-based solutions, and multi-criteria decision-making approaches to environmental planning.
I am particularly interested in contributing to the assessment of climate-related landscape vulnerabilities, the development of spatially informed adaptation strategies, and the integration of ecosystem services into planning and decision-making frameworks. My expertise can complement forestry and environmental science research by linking ecological assessments with landscape-scale planning and practical adaptation strategies.
I welcome opportunities to contribute to interdisciplinary research consortia through methodological development, comparative case studies, spatial assessments, and the preparation of competitive international research proposals.
Bursa Technical University (BTU) is a public university in Türkiye with a strong emphasis on research, technological innovation, sustainability, and interdisciplinary collaboration.
