Abstract

Today, rapid urbanization and rapid population growth increase the pressure on green spaces which have become insufficient to meet public demands. The active green spaces – the places essential for individuals to satisfy their longing for nature and to realize their recreational activities – need to be sufficient in quality and quantity in function in urban areas. To form green spaces to meet the needs, these spaces need to be designed properly by determining their quantity and quality. In this regard, it was aimed to establish the criteria to determine the quality and the quantity of active green spaces in Cukurova district in Adana, Turkey. In the study, the weighted criteria method was used. This method involves assigning values and calculations to defined criteria for determining the quality and quantity of active green spaces in the research area. According to the results, none of the active green spaces within the studied area is suitable for the highest appropriateness level; all local parks are at middle appropriateness level, 8.33% of neighborhood parks are the lowest, 66.67% of them are low and 25% of them are middle regarding appropriateness levels; 2.7% of the playgrounds are the lowest, while 16.23% of them are low, 67.56% of them are middle and 13.51% of them high; half of the sport areas are low, while the other half is high according to appropriateness level. The arrangements, which were made by taking into account the criteria in the study and based on the importance level priorities of active green spaces, will be able to raise the appropriateness levels of active green spaces.

Özet

Günümüzde hızlı kentleşme ve yoğun nüfus artışı yeşil alanlar üzerindeki baskıların artmasına sebep olmaktadır. Giderek azalan yeşil alanlar halkın ihtiyaç ve isteklerine cevap vermekte yetersiz kalmaktadır. Kentlerde bireylerin doğaya olan özlemlerini ve rekreasyon etkinliklerini gerçekleştirebilecekleri alanlar olan aktif yeşil alanların kent içindeki işlevlerini yerine getirebilmeleri için nitelik ve nicelik olarak yeterli olması gerekir. Bu bağlamda, Adana kenti Çukurova ilçesinde aktif yeşil alanların nitelik ve niceliklerinin saptanmasında kullanılabilecek ölçütlerin belirlenmesi ve mevcut alanların bu ölçütlere uygunluğunun saptanarak geliştirme önerilerinin getirilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmada, ağırlıklandırılmış ölçütler yöntemi kullanılmıştır. Bu yöntem, araştırma alanında aktif yeşil alanların miktarını ve kalitesini belirlemek için, ölçütlere değer atama ve hesaplamaları içermektedir. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre, araştırma alanında herhangi bir aktif yeşil alanın en yüksek uygunluk sınıfında bulunmadığı saptanmıştır; Semt parkları orta uygunluk seviyesinde, mahalle parklarının % 8.33'ü en düşük,% 66.67'si düşük ve % 25'i orta uygunluk sınıfında; Oyun alanlarının % 2.7'si en düşük, % 16.23'ü düşük, % 67.56'sı orta, % 13.51'i yüksek; Spor alanlarının ise yarısı düşük, diğer yarısı yüksek uygunluk sınıfındadır. Çalışmadaki ölçütlerin dikkate alınmasıyla yapılacak düzenlemeler yeşil alanların mevcut durumun iyileştirilmesini sağlayacaktır.
