Although drought is recognized as one of the major hydroclimatic hazards affecting the Mediterranean Basin, local-scale assessments to support planning for its agricultural, hydrological, and food security impacts remain limited. This study investigates historical and future drought dynamics in Manisa (Western Türkiye)...

Relative humidity (RH) provides complementary information on atmospheric moisture conditions that is not captured by precipitation alone. This study characterizes basin-scale RH-associated vegetation sensitivity across Türkiye’s 25 hydrographic basins using MODIS MOD13A1 NDVI observations for 2000–2024 and processed CM...

Forest fires are among the most critical disturbance agents reshaping Mediterranean ecosystems under accelerating climate change. This study employs a multi-scale remote sensing approach to examine the relationship between post-fire vegetation dynamics and climate variability in high-fire-risk areas of southern İzmir,...

Climate-related disasters, air pollution, poverty, and population health are typically studied in separate bodies of literature. This study examines whether a fully auditable national annual panel reproduces environmental–health relationships and to what extent this is dependent on the temporal specification and covari...

Mesh resolution is a central source of numerical uncertainty in two-dimensional flood modelling because it controls terrain representation, wetting–drying transitions, computational cost, and the transferability of calibrated parameters. Yet controlled evidence remains limited on whether two widely used solvers exhibit...
A novel hybrid modeling framework integrating multi-source satellite and climate data with machine learning and explanatory artificial intelligence techniques for the long-term assessment and interpretation of GWS anomalies in the data-poor Iğdır Basin highlights the necessity of using system memory and explainable art...

Long-term exposure to ambient fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is the leading environmental risk factor for premature mortality worldwide, yet comprehensive province-level evidence quantifying its health burden across Türkiye remains limited. This study investigated the spatial relationship between long-term PM2.5 expos...
