Altınoluk’ta ilgili grupların yapay resif algısı ve talebi

Bu çalışmada, Türkiye Ulusal Yapay Resif Master Planı'nın pilot bölgesi olan Altınoluk'da yerleştirilmesi planlanan yapay resiflere olan talebin belirlenmesi amaçlanmaktadır. Çalışma kapsamında, Altınoluk'daki ticari balıkçılar, rekreasyonel balıkçılar ve yöre sakinleri ile yüz yüze görüşmeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. Veri toplama çalışmaları, yapay resif yerleştirmesi yapılmadan önce, Nisan, 2011'de tamamlanmıştır. Çalışma hedef gruplarının yapay resif algısı özel olarak tasarlanan 13 ifade Likert ölçeği yardımıyla analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen sonuçlara göre, yapay resifler ile ilgili olumlu algı gözlenmiştir. Öte yandan, yapay resif yerleştirilmesi ile birlikte hem rekreasyonel balıkçılık (%158 artış) hem de ticari balıkçılık (31% artış) günlerinde artış tespit edilmiştir. Sonuç olarak, yapay resiflerle ilişkili grupların daha iyi anlaşılması ve yönetim süreçlerine dahil edilmesi yapay resiflerin etkinliği açısından önem taşımaktadır

Perception and demand for artificial reef by relevant local groups in Altınoluk (Turkey)

In this study, it is aimed to determine demand for the planned artificial reefs in Altınoluk where is the pilot site of the National Artificial Reefs Master Planof Turkey. Face to face interviews were conducted with commercial fishermen, recreational fishermen and local residents within the study. Data collection process was completed in April, 2011 before the artificial reefs deployment was launched. Artificial reef perception of the study target groups were analyzed by specially designed 13 statements with the aid of Likert scale. According to the results, positive perception regarding the artificial reefs was observed. Moreover, increases in both recreational fishing (158% increase) and commercial fishing (31% increase) days was determined with the deployment of artificial reefs. In conclusion, understanding artificial reef related groups and including them in management processes are crucial for the effectiveness of artificial reefs
