Investigation of Sea Surface Temperature Affecting on the Maritime Trade between 1999 and 2012 in the Gulf of Iskenderun

Journal Title: Natural and Engineering Sciences - Year 2019, Vol 4, Issue 1

Abstract

The effect of sea surface temperature changes between 1999 and 2012 were investigated on the amount of agriculture, food and energy loads that are supplied/discharged by maritime trade. In the nonparametric correlation analysis, it was determined that the SST changes between 1999 and 2012 did not directly affect the amount of food, agricultural and energy supplied / discharged to the port operators in the Gulf of Iskenderun. There was little change in the amount of agricultural raw materials from Iskenderun Gulf and the amount of energy raw material increased. In addition, the amount of food raw materials increased between 1999-2002, 2005-2007 and 2009-2012 and it was observed that it decreased in other years.
