dc.description.abstractCanakkale Province has a total surface area of 996 000 ha of which 513 000 ha are covered with forests. In other words, 52% of the surface area consists of forests, including Kaz (Ida) Mountain, rich in endemic species. However, this valuable forest area had significant losses due to the fires in the last 10 years. On the 30th July 2008, the largest forest fire of the last 10 years occurred in Erenkoy area and 1464 ha were burnt. This region is located at the entrance of the Dardanelles where Canakkale naval wars (1915) took place, and has significant value in terms of both historical and natural landscape character. In this study, the area which was destroyed in the fire in 2008 has been identified using remote sensing techniques. In order to determine the environmental structure changes, NDVI vegetation tissue density analysis has been conducted and differences in vegetation intensity have been examined. The losses and changes in natural landscape characters have been studied on the basis of flora and fauna. During the study process, the landscape has been defined on the basis of natural and cultural features and its character has been classified. The existing and potential destructions in the area have been identified and landscape planning decisions were suggested to resolve the degradation.
