TEMPORAL CHANGE OF LAND USE IN COASTAL AREAS BETWEEN ARSUZ AND DÖRTYOL (HATAY) (1987-2016), PROBLEMS AND SOLUTION PROPOSALS

The lands in a region can be used for different purposes according to the natural environment conditions of the area. However, it is not possible to say that each land use type is used in accordance with its potential. Especially in coastal areas, the rapid increasing of population due to the econom...
