Climate Types of Turkey According to Koppen-Geiger Climate Classification

Abstract

The Köppen–Geiger climate classification is one of the most widely used climate classification method. Climate zones are determined depending on monthly temperature and precipitation data and are indicated by letters. In this study, the Köppen–Geiger climate zones of Turkey were determined by analyzing the data collected from 512 meteorological stations. The climate characteristics of the determined climate types are explained via climate diagrams. According to the Köppen–Geiger climate classification, temperate climate (C) has the largest area, whereas arid climate (B) has the narrowest area. The widespread type B climate is observed in Central Anatolia, whereas type C climate is dominant in the coastal regions. Continental climate (D) is observed in the highlands of the Central Taurus and almost all of the Eastern Anatolia regions. According to the second and third letters, 10 different subclimate types were observed for B, C, and D climate types in Turkey. All these subtypes indicate that climates that do not have hot or cold dry seasons are dominant in Turkey. However, the northern parts of Turkey do not experience a dry-season climate.

Köppen-Geiger iklim sınıflandırması dünyada en yaygın kullanılan iklim sınıflandırmalarının başında gelir. İklim tipleri aylık sıcaklık ve yağış verilerine göre belirlenir ve harfler ile gösterilir. Bu çalışmada 512 meteoroloji istasyonu verileri kullanılarak Türkiye’nin Köppen-Geiger iklim tipleri belirlenmiş ve oluşturulan iklim diyagramları ile bu tiplerin genel iklim özellikleri açıklanmıştır. Köppen-Geiger iklim sınıflandırmasına göre, en geniş yayılıma kışları ılıman orta enlem iklimi (C) sahip iken en az yayılıma kurak iklim (B) tipi sahiptir. B iklim tipinin en geniş yayılımı İç Anadolu Bölgesi’nde, C iklim tipinin kıyı bölgelerinde ve D iklim tipinin (Karasal) Orta Toroslar’ın, İç Anadolu’nun yüksek kesimlerinde ve Doğu Anadolu’nun tamamına yakınında görülür. Ayrıca ikinci ve üçüncü harflere göre, Türkiye’de B,C ve D iklim tipleri içerisinde 10 alt iklim tipi görülür. Alt iklim tiplerine göre Türkiye’nin büyük bölümünde yaz ya da kış mevsiminin kurak geçtiği iklimler egemendir. Ancak, özellikle kuzey kesimde kurak mevsimin olmadığı iklimler görülür.
