| Abstract: | This study aims to put out on what ratio Bursa province, one of the important heavy industry regions of Turkey, has been affected
climatic process called “Global Warming” or “Climate Change”. For this intend climatic measurement results from Bursa center,
top of Uludağ Mount, Yenişehir and Keles meteorological stations were used. These measurements were taken as minimum temperature
at night-time, maximum temperature at day-time, and mean temperature, mean pressure, insolation intensity, insolation duration,
mean wind speed, minimum temperature above soil, soil temperatures at depths of 5, 10, and 20 cm rainfall. Overall, our statistical
results showed that there was a considerable warming at statistically 1% and 5% levels in summer months, particularly in July
Almost all performed measurements confirm this result. According to climatic data for thirty years (1975–2005), in the last
twelve years contrary to previous 18 years, mean temperature values were higher than long-term mean value nine times (years)
repetitively. Temperatures did not deviated higher than 0.5°C in six of these. At the temperatures below mean, The maximum
deviation was −0.4°C. |
