    Investigation of Avalanche Events Occurring in Palandöken Ski Resort
    (Cambridge Univ Press, 2025) Torpus, Kemal; Usta, Galip; Atalay, Ezgi; Gunduz, Fatma
    The aim of the study is to examine the avalanche events that occurred in Erzurum Paland & ouml;ken Ski Resort. Paland & ouml;ken's topography makes it vulnerable to avalanches. Avalanches are the rapid and sudden flow of snow masses accumulated on slopes and are considered one of the natural disasters. Several avalanches have occurred on Paland & ouml;ken Mountain, leading to tragic results. In 1974, six people were buried under an avalanche and rescue teams were injured in a secondary avalanche. In subsequent years, avalanches died four people in 1975, one person in 1976, and eight people on Dragon Peak in 1977. In 2006, one tourist died in an avalanche on Paland & ouml;ken Mountain. The last avalanche disaster on Paland & ouml;ken Mountain, which occurred on December 21, 2024, resulted in the death of an athlete from the Kocaeli Judo National Team of the Turkish Olympic Preparation Center. Paland & ouml;ken, one of T & uuml;rkiye's leading winter tourism destinations, hosts international events but faces significant avalanche risks due to its topography. In order to reduce these risks, it is essential to establish avalanche early warning and monitoring systems, provide avalanche safety training for tourists and personnel, and implement infrastructure measures to reduce avalanche hazards.

    THE EFFECT OF EARTHQUAKE KNOWLEDGE AND RISK PERCEPTION ON SOCIAL SUSTAINABLE EARTHQUAKE AWARENESS
    (Inonu University, 2024) Gündüz, Fatma; Atalay, Ezgi; Torpus, Kemal; Usta, Galip
    The aim of this study is to examine the relationship between participants' earthquake risk perception and knowledge level and sustainable earthquake awareness in terms of various variables. The study is descriptive cross-sectional research. 559 volunteer individuals participated in the study. Relationships between quantitative variables were determined with Pearson correlation analysis. Our research found that there is a significant difference between gender and earthquake risk perception. It has been determined that my disaster experience has an impact on the level of earthquake knowledge. Women were found to have lower earthquake knowledge scores than men. Women were found to have higher earthquake risk perception scores than men. Single people had higher cognitive earthquake risk perception scores than married people. It was found that the earthquake risk perception scores of the disaster survivors were higher than those of the non-survivors. More comprehensive studies may be needed to understand the interaction of factors such as gender, marital status, and disaster experience on earthquake knowledge level and risk perception. These studies can contribute to the development of more effective education and awareness strategies for the general earthquake preparedness of society.
