ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND ASSESSMENT, cilt.145, ss.81-94, 2008 (SCI-Expanded)
In especially urban areas and their proximity, environmental pollution has reached a level which threatens both people and public health. Although environmental problems in Turkey have been studied for many cities, including Erzurum, no study is present combining all the environmental matters of the city with short definitions of problems it faces, therefore, this study attempts to reveal the definition of the scope and problem of pollution and land use problems in Erzurum and use of studies from developing cities elsewhere in the world for comparison of methods and solutions.
