The Ince (Avlaka) cape which is at the west side of island is the westernmost side of Turkey. In terms of settlements, the island is very rich. Todays landscape of settlement form both of physical geography and historical geography is affected. Gokceda is a hilly island and villages are aggregated forms and well-arranged. The diversity settlement is on the northeast seaboard of the island. In this study, settlements are presented regarding with historical period. Some important settlements of island are built on Buyukdere valley. The administrative composition of Gokceada consists of a central town with 9 villages and some quarters.

    From International Sudents to Permanent Migration: A Case Study of COMU
    (Istanbul Univ Press, Istanbul Univ Rectorate, 2019) Kahraman, Selver Ozozen; Gultay, Berrin; Caliskan, Vedat
    International students (IS) constitute an important part of contemporary individual and voluntary migrants. The circulation of IS has seen a continuous increase, as globalization and technological communication networks, bilateral agreements, and international supports increase in their reach. Currently, developing countries are receiving positive benefits from this activity. In this study, reasons related to general preference, nationality, post-educational goals, and the permanence and internal-external migration potential of IS were examined in relation to the preference for COMU. Two types of data were used: (i) official records and statistics and (ii) a survey of IS in COMU. A stratified sampling method was chosen because the countries from where the students came were the most important parameters of the study. Using this method, 64 origin countries were stratified into six groups (Middle East, Asia, Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), the Balkans, Africa, and Other). The data obtained from the 45-question survey administered to 30% of the population at a sensitivity level of 0.10 were evaluated using chi-square and variance analysis. Further, multidimensional scaling was performed to form classifications according to country strata with the selected variables. Thus, the attendance of postgraduate education, the countries among which graduates expect to be distributed, and their persistence and migration potential were found. A significant number of students in COMU have plans to move to a different country for their MA or PhD. The contribution of these students to our country and to the world as potential qualified migrations will continue. Approximately half of the surveyed students are considering pursuing further education (particularly, MS or PhD) and evaluating the employment opportunities in Turkey. Their employment opportunities and cultural adaptation are important factors affecting their decision to stay.

    Impact of spatial differences on demographic characteristics: A comparative survey in Tuzla River basin
    (Elsevier Science Bv, 2011) Kahraman, Selver Ozozen; Caliskan, Vedat; Akbulak, Cengiz
    The Tuzla river basin is located on the southern side of the Biga Peninsula and extends in northeast-southwest direction from the Aegean Sea to the western slope of Mt Ida. The aim of this research is to reveal how the demographic structure is shaped and the reasons for migration in different geographical and cultural sections of the basin. Some nine villages, which represented three basins, were selected from 35 villages using the methods of stratified sampling for this study. Some 200 surveys were performed in regard to the household number of each village and at 95% confidence level. According to the survey results, demographic structure of villages and the investigated statistical relation between the form of agriculture and the migration characteristics were determined. In this basin, the demographic structure varies depending on the economic and cultural properties of the population. Population growth rate is low and has been gradually decreasing in this area since 1990. In rural areas of the basin, education of children, the form of agriculture, financial difficulty and traditional lifestyle are the causes of migration. Compared with the other sections of the basin, villagers in the lower basin have not migrated because of appropriate agricultural conditions; however, the demographic structure in the middle and upper sections of the basin has been disturbed. The important attractions for migration in the basin include the district center of Ayvacik, Gulpinar town and the Tuzla Village. Some of these people have migrated to Kucukkuyu town near the basin.

    Spatial Choices of Women Immigrants from Ex-Soviet Countries: the Example of Izmir
    (Istanbul Univ Press, Istanbul Univ Rectorate, 2019) Kamis, Hatice Begum; Kahraman, Selver Ozozen
    In the 1990s, migration of women began from the newly independent ex-Soviet states to Turkic communities. This is because the fall of the USSR led to economic upheaval and mass unemployment, owing to the sudden onset of globalization. In our study, regarding migrant women, we investigated cluster areas, spatial preferences, residential difficulties, reasons for their preferences, their need for invasive testing venues related to the need to seek employment through the duration of their stay in Turkey and Izmir, and the challenges they face while migrating, thereby demonstrating the effects of space in relation to all of these in women migrants in Izmir. Embedded theory, a qualitative data method, was used with 18 female migrants. It was found that the place of origin of migrants has an effect on their employment. Immigration status is a further addition to challenges for the identity of migrating women. It was found that immigrants come to Izmir because they consider it to be a safe and peaceful city. Izmir is rated among the top 10 cities for female immigrants owing to its socioeconomic structure. It is predicted that migration flows will increase if there is no state support in care services.
